Hence my theory of time travel

Alright now people have said that time travel is not possible. Yet it has already happened to some extent. In theory since I can predict some of the outcome of my future I can say that time travel is happening already. If drew a 1 block line and walk on it then I know that the future is me arriving at the end of the line. The future already exist since the past exist. I know that people would say the "future has not been written yet"

In theory if we go back to the past now the people in the past timeline could say the same thing if we ask them about the future. You see people the future has already been written it is merely being re-written over time. People have already been to the future, present, and past. My time travel theory can explain why some people in this world have vanished without a trace. I believe these people were erased from history because of time travel. I may sound crazy but this theory is not ignorable.

This would explain why the colony of roanoke vanished.

Past alters future.
Present alters future
Future can alter its future.

People who have vanished could not have been 'erased' because if they were 'erased' we wouldn't remember them.

Although perhaps they have just travelled back or forward in time . . .

If one could know the exact position and velocity of every particle in the entire universe, then one could predict the future based on a set of probabilities. Because this obviously isn't possible though, humans can't predict the future (at least not with any degree of scientific accuracy) on a practical basis.

Basically "anything that can happen will happen and has happened already"

So since we think time travel is possible then it is possible it has already happened since we know it can happen.

Lets just say Alternate Realities must exist in-order for all outcomes to be possible.

And again I say anything that can happen will happen and has happened already.

Can someone explain what the colony of Raonoke is?

borgslayer · **Sun Mar 20, 2005 10:03 pm**

In the early 1600 a group of English settlers landed on the island of Roanoke which is east of the carolinas. Now some settlers headed back to England to bring some news about landing on the Americas. Anyways after the settlers from England went back to Roanoke they found no one left because mysteriously everyone in the small colonial island have vanished without a trace. Hence the story of Roanoke Island.

Sure, in the 17th centurey strange thing happened over night, people tough the world was flat for a long time.

ya back then a flat world made more sense then people living on a round sphere

lionhead · **Tue Mar 22, 2005 9:00 am**

Yeah, so people vanishing was a better explanation then kidnap or Murder too.
Thousands of things could have happend to that colony that is explainable, and logical.

maybe they had to evacuate the area because of some disaster

I think that time travel is possible.

Kylon · **Sat Apr 16, 2005 5:17 pm Einstein was wrong...**

Einstein was wrong, and is wrong today.

Einstein didn't believe in quantum mechanics, which according to that(and which has been proven) light CAN travel faster than the speed of light due to the uncertainity principle.

Einstein is oldschool, quantum mechanics is new school.

Quantum mechanics is right(which again this has been proven), and Einstein has been proven wrong.

If you want more info on faster than light stuff, you can look into super luminal tunneling, or if you want quantum entanglement.

Also, if anything did go into a black hole, the reason it is supposedly able to travel back in time, is because due to the intense gravity field, and the intense warping of space time, all time within a black hole becomes one, past present future(or this is at least to my understanding). Since black holes do evaporate over time(they emit mass via radiation), you would instantaneously(from your perspective, if you weren't crushed) be converted and emitted as energy.

Anyway, alot of it's theory, alot of it's fact, I'm kinda sick, so I need to hit the sack.

Hitchhiker · **Sat Apr 16, 2005 5:49 pm**

The only thing that can never ever travel faster than light is light itself. Just like when you are walking: you can't travel faster than you are walking, and similarly light cannot travel faster than it is travelling at any given time. If it is increasing speed, it still isn't travelling faster than the speed of light because obviously its new speed is also the new speed of light.

(I'm arguing it as a matter of semantics here.)

Einstein was not wrong in any concrete sense. I think he just thought too big. You're right that quantum mechanics has exposed the inadequacy of relativity (for example, relativity cannot explain the pre-Big Bang universe). Also, Einstein was aware of the faults in his theory--it was one reason he tried adding in a "cosmological constant" to see if that would fix things.

His theories work fine over a large scale, but the smaller one thinks then the more obvious it becomes that relativity doesn't apply. Hence, quantum mechanics are used. Physicists are trying to figure out what the relationship between quantum mechanics (the small) and relativity (the big) are.

lionhead · **Sat Apr 16, 2005 6:06 pm**

he means that you can travel faster than the speed ofl ight without anything weird happening.

I agree with Kylon, einstein was wrong. I've been saying that for months but no one wants too believe me since i don't have a theory that proofs Einsteins theory is wrong.

Kyron did though.

webtaz99 · **Sun Apr 17, 2005 12:27 am**

The concept that nothing can travel faster than light is one of a set of assumptions Einstein used to formulate his theories, not a theory in itself. And while some of his conclusions may prove out wrong, others have been proven right.

Nostradamus is a time traveler or just a great forteller of the future? The answer lies in the future.

Well,... If you go into space, the time passes slower than on earth. So technically you'd be timetravelling then.

There hasn't passed as much time for you as for the people on earth

But that's the only form we know now.
I hope we discover someday how it's done, but I don't think it will ever happen. It's just too complicated.
