Is time travel possible

[BobBong]

No.

[cannabis campbell]

Lol ok fair enough opinion but its actually been proven that it is not extreme time travel but its a bunch of stuff to do with science and the speed you travel.. if you move extremely fast then it is possible (apparently) it happened to some nasa spaceship that crashed tha moved forward in time "apparently its possible to travel into the future but just not into the past" thats what Ive heard anyway.

Space and Time are two different things though... That's space travel, not time travel

[cannabis campbell]

There was this program about it once and they proved it could be done I think it was called "back to the future" lol..

Nobody has a working Flux Capacitor yet though.. :mad:

[higher4hockey]

im with bob, i do not believe so.

think about it....to go back into the past, there would have to be a past to go to...and that just doesnt seem to want to be feasible inside my melon.

[Psycho4Bud]

One thing I've learned.......never say never. After all, if man were to fly he'd be born with wings.:D

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

[420MissHighTimes420]

id like to belive so ......... and i want to be there when it goes down.

[crudemood]

time is something created by man. before time, it was cavement watching the shadow of the sundial slowly move across the floor. now if cavemen wanted to time travel how would they know to what 'time' theyare going to, they had no knowledge of anytime except for that sundial..
answer. no its not possible, but prove me wrong!

[GRASSMASTA]

all i gotta say is why not?

[NextLineIsMine]

you couldn't be more wrong bob. Einsteins whole schpeil was that we are in a space time continum. They are both one in the same really

[WEsmokeED]

Yes, kinda.
If someone where to develop the ability to travel faster than the speed of light, the could essentailly time travel.
For example, say your standing in your yard and you throw a ball. Then you run faster than the speed of light a few yards away. As you get there you will be able to not only catch the ball but watch yourself throw it. Because you will have beaten the light reflection of yourself to the spot. In essence you are watching the past.
The only problem is....no one can travel faster than the speed of light.

So No, not yet atleast

Yea but he also thought that the universe was static.. :wtf:

hahhaa lol! :stoned:

[Number 1 DJ]

yo i read in a einstien book all about time travel that he beleives time can be 'folded'. by what he means by that i have no clue. but I'm one of the people who think anything is possible givin the right circumstances. so to say it is impossible is kinda silly to me maybe humans dont have the tech but who is to say that on the billions of planets around the billions of stars there isnt a more intelligent race that is trying to time travel that might have a better understanding of it.

another thought is that if time is jsut a dimension (the 4th) we can already travel on three of them why should we only be limited to them?

[Mohksha]

It is impossible to travel faster than the speed of light. Hell, it's impossible to travel at the speed of light. Anything going that fast MUST turn to energy. Do the math, anything faster than light is a square root of a negative, which is impossible in the real world.

[beachguy in thongs]

The thing about time travel is that, I think, it's hilarious that I noticed that cannabis campbell was banned, after I had already read a couple of his threads.

[Purple Banana]

I had heard on Discovery channel that science experts think it is possible, but they could only travel back in time to when the time machine was invented- no further back.

It all reminds me of a Wrinkle in Time- a tesseract. You bring two ends of a string together and it meets in the middle, like folding time, and that's how they travelled.

Weird, mind-boggling stuff...

why is he banned?????

[chocochoco]

Time is NOT an absolute. Einstein proved it and it's been proven again. As someone mentioned traveling very fast can distort time and we stoners I guess can agree that time seems slower when really high! have anyone of you read about DMT? users tell that they experienced what to they felt like really more than just the minutes that supposedly passed. I think that traveling back in time is really weird and has a lot of paradoxes (killing your father, etc), of course who am I to say it's impossible but I subscribe to the idea that time travel only makes sense if to the future, it's known that when astronauts go to space their clocks desynchronize with the clocks here on earth! sorry I don't have links but I read books about and don't take it from me, look it up it's really interesting.

[Thundakat85]

i dont know about time travel, i think it may be possible eventually, but not in our lifetime. I think we will be able to walk through things pretty soon though

[iStaaHi]

maybe

[Not An Addict]

I think we will be able to walk through things pretty soon though

eh?

[tha_green_ghost]

I don't know, that's a question I've asked myself for years and still think it'll never be obtainable. Time has a big ?mark because what is time? Given, it is a dimension... but it's way more complicated than that. Like I said in another thread, time is only a record of the past that doesn't exist anymore. Present is a precise instant that constantly renews itself. But I don't think we could ever "defeat" what we call time...at least this is what I think

[ghosty]

I read about a research team in Japan that was able to use proton accelorators and such to make a beam of light reach the destination before it'd be possible to light to reach it yet... like they were able to make it somewhat skip forward faster than the speed of light. It was really interesting...

I'll do my best to see if I can find it again..

[ghosty]

Here's one... not the one I was looking for originally but it's about a team that was able to slow and speed up the actual speed of light... might have been the same team

I dont know alot or anything really about time travel but once u travel back in time how do u get back to the present time? you would need all the same materials and technology from the future

[Hempfester]

Time is just a funky thing that stops all the shit in your life from happening all at once.

[mfqr]

We are getting closer and closer to time travel. Time travel is supported by quantum physics, and of course, they are working on it as we speak. I never thought I'd see the possibility of time travel being discovered in my lifetime - but I was wrong.

[beachguy in thongs]

why is he banned?????

It beats me.

[Coelho]

The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali have been considered by some, such as physicist Fred Alan Wolf in his book, The Yoga of Time Travel to describe an inner process by which we can access knowledge of the past and future in the present. This form of time travel can be acquired by transcending the five Earthly anchors of the ego mind which otherwise leave us locked into the illusory self.

And not only they, but almost every information about astral projection says that is possible to astral project into the past (or the future), and so to know what was and what will be. Thats how the people who foresees the future do it.
Also the called "double", or "other", can be at different times than the "self".

lol i like that idea

[Flesh420]

Have you ever seen Deja Vu? The theory in that movie could possibly work. We just got to figure out how to do that. Which hopefully our air force is working on now as we speak!

[FanClerksHD]

I think what you're asking is a very complicated and multi-faceted issue.

First, time is simply a human construct. Same as the terms "past", "present", and "future". They refer to our observation of an event relative to another event. So, in reality we are constantly "time traveling" as we are constantly observing events that happen in the present and become the past, so we are moving into the future. Now, the general idea of "time travel" means moving to a certain event marker by will. This is where we have the problem. To perform this feat, we'd have to somehow remove ourselves completely from the space-time continuum. At which point, we'd see all events that have ever happened and will ever happen, all at the same time. This is the main crux of the problem. How can you remove yourself from the space-time continuum? Is there even a "place" to go to that is outside that continuum?

Second, as somebody said earlier in the thread, if you were somehow able to remove yourself from the space-time continuum you'd also have to be able to somehow rejoin that continuum, which more than likely would be done with the same device, meaning that you'd only be able to travel back to the time that device was first turned on.

Third, there becomes the issue of a paradox. If you were able to go back in time and changed something, you'd basically create an alternate future, so when you go back to the time you came from, it'd be different from how you left it in ways you can only imagine.

So, finally, do I think it's possible to time travel? That depends on in which way you mean. In the typical sense of time travel, no, probably not. We might however, if we ever advanced far enough to alter our consciousness and its connection to the space-time continuum we might be able to look at the past or future.

[LuckyG]

If it worked, we'd know it already. Unless there were extremely strict regulations on it, we'd have seen or heard of something fishy going on, and since history shows us that mankind doesn't like obeying strict regulations...

[Old Stoner]

Sure, time travel is possible. Everytime I listen to Jimmy Hendrix, I immediately travel back in time to the 60's, LOL....

Burning guitar and EVERYTHING!

And are you kidding about Cannibas Campbell being banned? Or am I just gullable... ;)

Well... as you said in the beginning, the time is a human concept. Our consciousness is "traveling in time" in direction to the future, and thats why we percieve the time going on.
But, it does not mean that our consciousness must be limited to follow it. We humans learn, when childs, to move our consciouness forward in the time, for it follow the time of the other consciousnesses of the other people. And its a so deep rooted thing in our mind that we dont ever question it, and believe that "time" is somewhat that flows regardless our consciousness. Everybody who smoked knows that the time slows down when we are stoned... that our consciousness can percieve the flow of time in different speeds.
So, if you have a sufficient control of your consciousness, by meditation procedures or through hallucinogens, its possible to overcome this conditioning of the perception of the time and percieve a timeless reality, where past, present and future are unified and "happen at the same time", or some what like it. Also is possible to the consciousness move to some other location, not only in the space, but also in the time (cause as said in relativity, space and time are equivalent), and so allow the perciever to perceive things that were or things that will be yet.


So, finally, do I think it's possible to time travel? That depends on in which way you mean. In the typical sense of time travel, no, probably not. We might however, if we ever advanced far enough to alter our consciousness and its connection to the space-time continuum we might be able to look at the past or future.

Me too!

[Flesh420]

Actually the air force realesed some like 40 page document about this and teleporting. They said time travel and teleporting are both very real and can be acheived threw our minds. If you do not beleive me look it up. And if u cant find it ill get you a link but right now im too lazy.

[SantaClawz]

Search for John Titor on google, he was a time traveler...lol

[Flesh420]

lol that would be awsome if what titor said was true.

[smokey the bear]

time travel is possible only into the future. the closer you get to light speed, the faster time travels forward. and for people who don't think it's possible, there have been experiments done that prove this concept is true.
