I know that if you go really fast, the faster you go, the slower time progresses, and as you approach the speed of light, things completely stop. If you continue to go, faster than the speed of light, you will go back in time. But is there a way to go forward in time?

But isn't it impossible to be completely stopped, because of everything moving around you, it would appear as though you were moving. And even if there were a way to stop, could you even go slower than nothing?

And by traveling forward in time, I mean Going to the future WITHOUT AGING. Like being chryogenically frozen but that is only sci-fi.

Actually, you can't go back in time, but you can jump into the future... Accdng to the Theory of Special Relativity, "moving" clocks run slow. So when something moves close to the speed of light, c, relative to the (earth, for example) the time will go slower for the object.i wont discuss the theory of relativity here cause i it wont fit in here.... if you want the equation.... t' = t x √(1-v²)
t' = time between two events measured in a reference frame where they occur at the same place
t = Time between two events measured ina reference frame where they occur at different places
v = relative speed of the two reference frames, as a fraction of c

oh yeah... travelling faster than speed of light is impossible.. but scientists thinks that there is a possible hypothetical faster-than-light particles called tachyons..... =)

If you want to time travel try Remote Viewing. Astral time travel is safer and faster. Why drag all of that stuff with you? I've done this it's weird being in someone Else's body. A hot female is interesting but for the most part doesn't feel any different unless you have to go pee or have sex. Many O's big time.

Going forward is easy. Just wait.

Move fast and you move forward in time slower than me, but you still move forward.

Going back, contrary to what you say, is impossible.

Hi. There are theoretical particles called tachyons that can ONLY go faster than light. Increasing their energy makes them go slower. I have a hunch that, should they be real, they travel backwards in time. We ALL go forwards in time.

Hi,friend,me never read about future travel,,but I think if Time dilation occurs when u moving away from clock with high speed nearly equal to speed of light,Then reverse phenomenon should to occur,I mean when u traveling towards clock with high speed , then reverse phenomena will also occur,to which we can give name TIME CONTRACTION,

there is two way to imagine time,
a hallway, and an elevator

in a hallway time, you go forward, but the past is not gone, just behind you
in an elevator (that can only go up) time, you go up and the past is GONE, the future covers and REPLACES the past, so you can't go back because there is no WHERE to go.

Hummmm. Maybe if you do the opposite, which would be to slow yourself down so that you appear to be stopped, and then slow yourself down even more you would go forward in time. (Thry've probably thought of that already though)

I'll tell you how to go forward in time, tomorrow. Just wait.

I have no idea but that would be awesome. If you figure out how to do it let me know. I want to go with you.

I'm sure someone will prove mathematically that you can, but we both know that tomorrow hasn't happened yet.
