Simple answer:
You could theoretically travel into the future using the time-dilation effect of special relativity, which states that a moving clock appears to tick more slowly the closer it approaches the speed of light. This effect, which has been supported by experimental tests, applies to all types of clocks, including biological aging.
If you were to depart the earth in a spaceship that could accelerate continously at a comfortable one g (an acceleration that would produce a force equal to the gravity at the earth's surface), you would begin to apporach the speed of light relative to the earth within about a year. As the ship continued to accelerate, it would come ever closer to the speed of light, and its clocks would appear to run at an ever slower rate relative to the earth. Under such circumstances, a round trip to the center of our galaxy and back to the earth - a distance of some 60,000 light-years - could be completed in only a little more than 40 years of ship time. Upon arriving back at the earth, you would be only 40 years older, while 60,000 years would have passed on earth.
Of course such a trip would pose extreme engineering problems such as an enormous energy source and mass-conversion capabilities. But nothing in the known laws of physics would prevent such a trip from occuring.
If you'd like to travel into the past then you could try going through a wormhole (a tunnel connecting spatially separated regions of space-time) and give one mouth of the wormhole a substantial velocity with respect to the other. Passage through the wormhole would then allow travel to the past.
The problem is that you'd have to find a wormhole. But it's at least possible.
Anyway these are 2 possibilities for traveling through time.
I hope this answered your question and helps.

I have one.
I use it in short bursts into the future.
Unfortunately it only works one way, so I cannot go back to the past.
I first sit in it, making sure that I am comfortable. With lights out and the room very quiet I close my eyes and relax for the ride.
The jump into the future is usually 7-8 hours, however, sometimes it can be as short as a few minutes.
I bought mine fully assembled from Barcalounger many years ago, and it still works as good as new.
I have included a link to my Time Machines manufacturer.

Building a time machine is relatively simple!
First go to your local wal-mart or hobby lobby and ask for a clock kit then follow the instructions in the kit and wah la, a time machine!
(Thus you have left this site and went someplace else)

I built a time machine once but i transported myself back to a time before I figured it out and now I am here but forget how to build it again

I havent really got time for this,but buy an old phone box,get a a can of spray paint and frost all the windows,fit a clock then get inside and wait.

the neatest a million% of those losers are the Cloward-Piven and Alinsky-steeped leaders of the flow, a lot of whom are drawing earnings from ACORN and SEIU front agencies. So in a feeling they have employed the others as an unpaid hire-a-mob, and then dole out blankets and warm lunches rather of tangible wages and reward. the super socialist utopia, coming to a commercial district close to you.

Get a plane... more like a 747 with plenty of gas.... and start flying west. Eventually, you'll get back enough hours to be behind by days or even weeks. Hahaha!
It's logical. Isn't it?

Get your pen and paper ready. Here we go:
-Lots of aluminum foil. At least 50 pounds.
-Live goat
-Jumper cables
-Hammer
-Hamster wheel
-20 gallons of Diesel
-Gray Goose
Just build it from the ingredients above.

Ask Britney Spears. She seemed to have it all figured out on that video I saw of her and Kevin on that www.u2.com website.
