Time Travel
-
Theoretically, to travel back in time, you have to move faster than the speed of light which should require infinite energy to accelerate to and decelerate from. More importantly, if you exceed the expansion rate of the universe, you may end up in the decaying false vacuum and may travel into another universe, however due to the massive amount of energy cause by the inflation-mediated expansion, you would be immediately ripped apart from the heat.

true, Einstein's theory was that if you moved away from a clock at a speed greater than the speed of light the clock would go backwards, if you think logically this is true. -

Which according to the multiple-universe theory can potentially result in being incinerated due to energy from false vacuum decay. So either way it's a bad idea. -
My rant on time travel:
some say it doesnt exist because if it will we would have already visited ourselves right?
I think that they do and there are specific reasons why we havent experienced time travel yet my reasons follow:
A: you can only go forward in time
B:you cant go to before the time machine was built or you were born. EX: a person would get younger until they broke down into protiens and amino acids, and the machine would turn into raw metals and dust.
C:we realized the problems that backwards time travel and decided as a people to only go forwards in time and return with more advenced technology therefore accelerating evolution and humans trancending to some thing where time travel was no longer necessary.
ANOTHER PARADOX: if you went back in time for a specific reason, say to give your self the cure for cancer, your goal would already be accomplished and you wouldnt have a reason to time travel. agreed?

@Kerbal1234Not entirely, I gave a link to the article didn't I? And most of it is my work...Creative Commons allows such things :)

Yeah but to travel back in time even to a different time line would theoretically result in incineration via false-vacuum decay. -
time only moves in one direction. forward. BUT one can fast forward it a bit during interstellar travel because if one moves at the speed of light (or sound either way works) time goes normally for everyone else. meaning what might have been just a few minutes to you was a few hundred years in reality. so it in a sense could be considered time travel because to you time was fast forwarded to some point in the future. going back in time however has been proven impossible. don't get me started about the multidimensional aspect of time travel though. that is a completely different story! i mean you can ask if you really wanna know but seriously i'd never shut up about it lolz. fascinating stuff, multidimensional theories are. haha.
