When we talk about time travel facts and figures, we talk about theories that great minds have shared with us over the last decades. Experiments and theories have been put into practice revealing all sorts of interesting data.
In physics, for example, we have had different opinions about the possibility of time travel and whether or not it is (or could be) possible.
Newton and Einstein
Isaac Newton (1643-1726) believed that time is absolute, a straight line at a constant speed. This is what the English great physician and all the world believed until 1905.
Albert Einstein (1879-1955) had a different opinion, however. He believed that time was relative. He proved that the faster we travel through space, the slower we travel through time.
Einstein presented a handful of possibilities with respect to time travel. One of them was that moving against the direction of the rotation of the universe we would be able to travel backward in time.
Another theory of time travel was moving through the rings of the massive black holes would enable us to travel in different times and space. Black holes are known as wormholes through space.
So easy yet so simple. So why are we not able to do it?
Stephen Hawking said that “Time travel is possible but is not practical” His opinion is that these journeys are not practical due to the vast amount of energy required to do it.
But is there another solution?
After all these theories, we still don’t know for sure if time travel is possible or not. Different discoveries proved that is not impossible, however.
Some good examples are the time travelers that have been seen in some old photos in Charley Chaplin movies. For example in his 1928 “The Circus” a woman is seen walking around in the background with what clearly appears to be a mobile phone.
Experiments
The very intelligent inventor Tesla was far ahead of his time and came up with the idea that time and space could be influenced by using highly charged magnetic fields.
His discoveries lead years later to the Philadelphia Experiment and the Montauk time travel Project.
Tesla documented that time and space could be interfered with. In his experiment with an electromagnetic charge, he claimed that he could see the immediate past, present and future.
Another time travel experiment is the Project Pegasus as challenged by Andrew Basiago back in 2004. He claims that back in the late 1960s to early 1970s he had participated in various experiments which sent him through space and time. All this took place when he was just 7 years old.
The Philadelphia Experiment
The well-known Philadelphia Experiment that inspired a great movie named after it was actually two experiments.
The first experiment took place in 1943 and with the use of electromagnetic fields made the USS Eldridge, a navy destroyer, disappear or become invisible.
The second experiment, later in the same year, had the purpose of teleportation involving the small-scale time travel of the USS Eldridge. The ship was sent a few seconds into the past.
These are a few of the experiments humans have been involved in while attempting to travel in time, especially for military purposes.
Summary
Of course, I can go on and list many other events. All I wanted to do here though was a touch on a handful of facts and figures and for you to know that I will be covering each experiment and theory in a lot more detail as I expand this website.
I hope you enjoyed this information and I look forward to you passing by again for more of the information that is coming.
Of course, if you have any questions or you would like to add something I would love to hear from you.
SO .. do you believe time travel is possible?

Hello Cristina, wow nice blog you have here. Very interesting. It really took my attention completely.
Time travel I believe is possible as there are some photos that contains some evidence of time travel, like the woman who is talking to a mobile phone when mobile phone was not yet existent.
Lately, the government of the USA approved the theory of Einstein that space can be bent which proves his theory of relativity which will serve as another back up that teleportation and time travel is possible.
hello there 🙂 if you will read my next post you will that it is really possible :))) thank you 🙂 and i hope you will enjoy the next articles.
Cristina, I am a fan of science fiction and find your site fantastic. I will follow you so keep up the good work. My belief is that there are many more habitable and inhabited worlds out there. Time travel, “worm holes”, “black holes”,and our knowledge of them may even happen in my lifetime. How else will we be able to travel light years away. My grandfather, born in the late 1800’s told me we would never go to the moon.
:)really? Did He tell you this?I think same, I think we will be able to see this happening:)thank you for your comment:)
Hey Christina,
Great post, i find it very interesting! Hmmm although I don’t think it’s ever possible to travel back in time.. BUT if I could i would like too, I mean who doesn’t? I have made so many mistakes in the past, and if i could went back in time and change all of that, how great can that be! Haha maybe if one day someone found out a way to travel in time, you can write a post about it and tell the world? 🙂
Samuel
for sure i will 🙂 hahaha :))) But for you to know … you are not alowed to fix your mistakes. You will make a paradox 🙂
This is a great site Cristina! I believe that time travel, like anything else we put our efforts into, will one day be possible, if it isn’t already. It would help if we refrain from ruining the world we have to live in now. Ideas require brains, which need oxygen! Further, I feel that we will find the answers to our wild, big questions once we unlock the mysteries of what we call the mundane. Regarding the comment before me though, I have heard before the admonition against creating a paradox. This is a very interesting thing. Just my opinion, please don’t hate me, but what use would there be in time travel if no actions were performed. For that matter, I’m not sure we would have a choice, unless the time travel was merely a visual experience, a sort of hallucination. Why? You go to any country in this world, and you will need to eat. You eating in the past or future would create a paradox, not to mention you being there. That’s just the simple stuff. I could go on and on. I just don’t see that time travel can happen without paradox arising. Would that really be so bad? I dunno! Sometimes I think there is room for paradox within “reality”. Perhaps paradox is the building block of all reality, and our focal points determine what that reality means to us. Anyway, I love it! Thanks Cristina.
I think you are right but scientists don t think the same 🙂 OK in my opinion it is just to see how were the things to learn from our mistakes or to find pout truth but if you make a paradox, maybe you don t exist anymore in the present . Did you think about this?
Wow Christina
Very nice post, I’m not sure if we can make time travel possible, but for sure I would love to go back few years and change few things that I did in the past, I believe that everyone will love to do the same.
I will be following your next posts 🙂
Thank you Christina
Thank you for the reading:)))
The concept of time is really interesting. In essence, when we look back at the moon we are looking back into time. It’s amazing really. Movies like Interstellar do a good job of explaining the science behind it. Especially now that gravity has been proven to exert influence over our environment in a number of ways, from the way we think, to our body shape. Great post!
🙂 thanks 🙂 of course ,the gravity is playing a major role 🙂 .thanks for reading and I am sure all the sf movies are inspired from reallity
I would really have to see this with my own eyes to believe it to be possible. I don’t know, for me it just doesn’t seem possible…time travel. I mean what happens to our body, the cellular system, and all that? Maybe I am just skeptical. You did a really great job on your post with a lot of good and solid information. Gives us something to think about for sure. Thank you!
welcome and i really try my best to bring as much as possible information 🙂 thanks for reading
This was a very interesting article to read. It kept my attention the whole time. Project Pegasus seems really interesting and if you have wrote about that please give me a link to it. The Philadelphia Experiment is another one that seems super interesting and if you’ve wrote about that id also love a link to it.
Hi Christina,
Time travel is a fascinating subject however why do most concentrate on travelling into the future rather than back in time.
I wish I could go back and start all over again. I’ve have one heck of a ride to where I am now like most people I suppose yet if I could change it all I certainly would.
Here’s a thing: If it were possible on going back in time, would it be possible to change anything or are we all destined to lead ourselves up our own independent path?
Mind boggling!
When you think about it we are looking back in time every time we look at the stars for example due to the speed of light.
I’ll be visiting you site again, it gets you thinking.
Thanks,
Simon.
Thanks for reading and..yes me too i prefer the past. I would love to time travel in the 80s:) Actually is more possible to travel in the future 🙂 As you say, looking to light of the stars you travel many years in the past. Those stars can be already dead:)
if we lead our own path? I recommend you to see the series Genius with Stephen Hawkins and will answer you to this question 🙂 Actually we take our path , we make our choices but from a limited number of alternatives. Every time you make a choice you create a new time line . This explain the existence of multiple universes.
Thanks again for reading and I am here if you have any other question 🙂
I’ve been watching tons of videos about time travel resently, I’m glad I came across this site!
I am glad that you found it interesting and I am sure you can read many things about time travel that you will enjoy:) If there is something you want to know more about let me know:) have a nice day:)
Cristina
Time travel is and interesting subject. It can be both simple and easy at the same time.
I enjoyed how you compared Newton and Einstein philosophies. For example, Newton believed time was absolute were Einstein believed timed was relative.
My question to you would be do you think time travel would be possible with all our advances in technology?
Hello there, i don’t know if in a scientific way or through natural portals but i think has been done in the past many times and is possible. But this is only my opinion. Maybe i am wrong ,who knows.As you say time travel can be both simple and complicated. can be very complicated, through cosmic strings, black holes and very simple, just a natural energy portal on our earth.
Do what do you think, in your opinion can be possible or not? Who was right, Einstein or Newton?
Have a good day and than you for visiting my site. stay close for updates.
