will going back into past or future be possible theoritically?

I think there is an imbalance...but it can't make it possible to go back...I just think it's more physical...now. If that makes sense...I think that distances are not absolute...

It is possib to go forward in time, but the only way for that is by going as fast as you can near the speed of light. Even then, while your perception of time remains normal, everything else outside of your immediate area (like space craft) speeds up.
In simpler standards, the faster you go, the more you slow down in time and do not age, but everything else in the galaxy, like the Earth, continues at the normal speed, so when you finally slow down near the Earth, you will have not aged much, but everyone on the Earth would be seconds, hours, days, weeks, years etcetera older, depending on how long you travelled.

No. There is no discrepancy in their absolute values and relationships. This is able to be seen in the physics trilogy: E = mc2, m = E/c2, and c2 = E/m. Notice that the only value that does not change is the c2 one. Energy is able to vanish into becoming mass, and mass into energy - the c2 value is always constant.
What this value is, is the basis of our existence. We are composed of this value, the value of physical time. It is this value that the present flows into becoming the past, and the future the present. Notice that it is a value to itself. There is no manner of making the value of c2 that of it and something else. It is what physical time is, and it is unchanging. Physical time is able to be formed into mass, and mass into an increase of physical time in relation to other mass, but the value of "c" is unable to be compounded or reduced to less than what it is.

I think it would mess up the space-time-contiunum. I tried it with my flux capacitor, and supplied the 10000 jigawats, but nothing happened. I guess wait for lightning to strike the clocktower.

If it happens count me in, great opportunity to change a few bad choices in the past & if you can go forward know the lottery numbers ahead of time.

What is an imbalance in space and time ??? I assume you made that up. You cannot travel in time.

Remember, time is the 4th dimension of space.
As far as traveling through time goes, it is possible, but requires great energy.

Time does not exist. It is something that people have made up.

idk but that would be cool to go back in time or in the future
