Good question! I guess that proves that it will never be possible!

Practically this is impossible. Theoretically Ur able to ask about time travel only bcoz of Einstein's theory of relativity(check it out- its cool). The theory says that that if u travel at the speed of light Ur mass would become infinite. which is just not possible. So even if u do make a machine that travels at the speed of light, u shall never be able to travel in one without exploding into millions of pieces.

First of all, it is impossible. But if there were such a machine and humans were traveling back in time, they could not tell anyone or interfere with the events of the present because it could create a paradox, and might endanger his or her own life.

If they COULD travel here from the future, can you imagine the paperwork--permits, etc.,--that would be needed beforehand? Imagine all of the waivers and other documents you'd have to sign and so forth. I don't believe "tourists" would be visiting us, but rather certified historians and academic researchers. They would probably be sworn to anonymity and we wouldn't know it IF they were here.

Really nice question. But is there really something interesting to travel to.

Well presumably this proves what we all already knew - that travel back in time is not possible.

The future has not happened,at least on this plane of conscience. I believe you can go back in time on this plane

if they travel "back" in time they can interfere with their past thus altering their present, i guess.

To us, our time is nothing more than now.
