are we all just increments of time each seperated not by distance but by energetic patterns of speed.where each of us is placed in a seperate dimension,or does time move at an even pace if so that would mean time travel would never be a possibility.It has been speculated that time travel has already been discovered,but it was not safe to do so,so was discontinued.what is ur opinion?

I think physical time travel IS a very real possibility that governments either have looked into or still ARE dabbling into for logical reasons of specific "applications of interest". Forward time travel would have to exploit the "loophole theory" that steps over Enstein's doubts on the whole thing; Reverse time travel, which is more likely easier to execute, for good reasons, is dangerous and shouldn't yet be toyed with....if toyed with at all.
But on another facet, wouldn't reincarnation be a form of time travel? Think about it: social evolvement from several lives past to your current one, detailed chronologically, would have one appear to be a time traveler on a more spiritual plane.
But that is NOT to sugeest one embrace death in this life to travel on to a new next life by NO means.

Have you read that book The End of Time about some physicists theory that time dose not exist? derived from some of Machs work , wouldn't' that complicate time travel a bit? Or Shrodingers cat, a theory on super position. Very interesting but even if we could or can make things go faster than light the information it carries might not. Some have tried to break Einsteins theory speed limit. I still have never herd of anyone coming close.I am no physicist though. I don't think I understand but a bit of these theory's. But I think I know why it is so sought after.

I believe that time travel is possible. I am sure that you have noticed that everything in life evolves around a circle. Planets, humans ancestral past; from apes to humans and back to apes, thus a circle. The way we live; born, young, creating life, old, then death; a circle. Every thing in life is as a circle. Maybe created this way by the sheer force of gravity. Even time is shaped into a circle which means that if we go far enough and FAST enough we will come up behind ourselves, thus time-travel.

Time or the perception of time is unique to each person. If it were not then we would all perceive time in the same way. Two people sitting in front of a TV might think that time is going by faster for one and slower for the other just because one likes the show and the other does not. Its all in you perception of the moment. I would like to think that anyone whom is smart enough to discover time travel would have thought about all the ramifications of said travel before they went ahead and did it.

It seems to me that time is relative to velocity as Einstein stated in his special theory of relativity and the only way to travel forward in time is to approach relativistic velocities. To travel backward in time I believe is an impossibility as well as impractical in the extreme. Consider chaos theory, where as an example a butterfly flapping its wings causes a rainstorm in central park...yet the next time it flaps its wings an entirely different set of circumstances follow. For the sake of argument you go back in time, the smallest action could have results which change the future and jeopardize your existence. This is why we cannot accurately predict the future. We can only guess what will happen based on probability.

We aren't increments of time. We are chemical reactions, we're information, time doesn't exist. Time is just an expression we use to explain chemical reactions that would occur whether or not we were here to keep time. Time travel is a fantasy. It's as impossible as traveling at the speed of light.

in my view, i'm not sensible no matter if i ought to volunteer for something like Mars One. On yet another aspect, i'm one hundred% in the back of manned area exploration. the benefits it ought to carry are gigantic, and it must be stupid and short-sighted to dismiss area and the exploration of the most suitable frontier. to those arguing that we are able to in no way see a manned Mars project and it ought to take 50 years to construct a great spaceship and so on that's absolute codswallop with all due appreciate. The Apollo purposes application that followed the Apollo moon missions had designs on sending a three guy crew to Mars by using 1985/1986 on the earliest. NASA overcame the problem of radiation by using providing the crew with a 'moist workshop' version of the S-IVB booster that must be secure with lead defensive and be domicile for the crew in the course of the transit to Mars. consequently immaturity and shortage of expertise of politicians we in no way were given the prospect to attempt it. you do not choose a 'massive' deliver or 50 years of progression to get to Mars. If we resurrected the 1960's technologies shall we do it the following day. i imagine the saddest difficulty is that we've regressed in words of area exploration in view that 1972.

That is the physical world you are talking about, but the inner world is different, has different rules, substance and purposes. It is maybe best when the realms work together.
For example, I know relativity functions in the inner space, but it may have a different dimension and function even. Turn relativity on its head and inside out and then look at it through a mirror and what do you see?
Maybe that will enlighten us?

I don't know about that. But I do know that we are all time travelers. We hurtle into the future at the breakneck rate of one second per second. We have no power to stop and stay in the present.

I believe we can never go back in time. What has happened, has happened so bear with it, learn something positive about it, move on and don't repeat it if it is a mistake.
Time is linked to our lives. So we should make use of our precious time while we are alive to contribute to the well-being of our family friends and society so that we add value with our short-lived presence.
Hope I add value to your life with my answer...
