    Most current theories of the universe allow for it. That being said, we barely understand anything about time so it's hard to say.

    I don't think so. Maybe it could be possible to "watch" the past in a certain point of the universe, but not participate and change it...

    that's impossible. The time dilation equation shows that someone traveling at the speed of light expiriences no time, which is an impossibillity.

    By a loose definition, forward "time travel" is possible and has been done. In fact people do it every day when they drive.

    I don't think it's possible to "travel through" time, but it may be possible to speed up or slow down time.

    Basic rules of physics tell you that you cannot go back in time further than when the machine is first turned on, which explains why we haven't seen any visitors from the future.

    HELLS YEAH! Didn't you ever read that calvin and hobbes comic? They were trying to go really fast down the mountain in their wagon to achieve time travel and in the end they crashed but they were two minutes further than when they started and traveled!

    In all seriousness...why the smurf not? At the present time we have no clue how to do it but there is still so much that we don't know about the universe and how it works. We know stars die but do black holes also die? What are gravatrons and why do they disappear? Eventually I think we will unlock more and create time travel.

    Nope no way no how.

    Merely going at the speed of light or faster is an illusion of time travel. Because you go faster than sound does not mean you dont make any. Its only relative to you.

    Time is all relative anyways. It is not a substance, more of a measure of a constant. If a space ship went faster than light - the material on the ship would still age. It would act as nothing was happening - much like us - we don't get winded in a car going 40 mph, and if you do see your doctor

    This is all opinionated but seems to be right to me! lol
