Do you Believe in Einstein's theory of time travel?

Question

He said that if you can go faster than the speed of light and go forward----you can go to the future.
If you can go backwards_which is a great talented_----you can go to the past. So if his theory is true, scientists shoul make a time machine that vibrates so fast that it can beat light in a 9000K race! And it has to automaticly just push back and/or forward. But that's another story!

Answer 1

The way I understand his theory is that as you approach the speed of light time for you slows down, while time continues everywhere else at normal pace.

therefor if you took a five light year round trip at near light speed and left your twin brother on earth, then when you returned from your round trip you would find that your twin brother is now very much older than yourself.

Also according to his theory once you travel at light speed you would become pure energy.

Although no human really knows what pure energy is, and that part is according to me.

If you could imagine many years ago when humans lived in caves at one point a fire possibly started in a forest by a lightening bolt, the cave people could have grabbed a stick with fire on it, and placed more wood over it and used the fire for warmth inside there cave, and figured out through some very primitive deductive reasoning that fire was good, and then used it for there own purposes.

In the same respect we now use energy, but we really do not know what it is, just as we do not know what fire is, we only know how to play with it, as I myself have contemplated fire, and even just recently read an article about how scientists are now studying fire because they really do not know what it is.

Back to your question, I myself am not aware that
Einstein's theory ever spoke of going backwards in time
All motion in our universe is in constant third dimensional motion, and if you were to go out into space in your rocket ship and pick any singular direction to travel, and no matter at what speed you do it, the entire Universe is still moving forward which is the fourth dimension.

If then you reverse thrusters and go backward in your rocket ship relevant to your position with in it, and even if you could approach near light speed, the entire Universe is still moving forward which is the fourth dimension.

As I see it the only way possible to traverse backward into time would be to build spacial displacement generators with numerical oscillation frequency's based on the values of Pi, as each time the generator is functioning the values must be changed because essentially you are opening worm holes in the space time continuum and each frequency is like a key to another time and place that one of your other spacial displacement generators was operating.

I myself believe that Einsteins theory's were very accurate, he was a gifted man and we have all benefited from his help and influence here, he was not a God, and any person can be like Einstein, we only have to use our brains. although most likely no mortal human is always accurate about everything, although we can all try our very best, and remember that simple fact.

Answer 2

Einstein never said anything about time travel in the sense of going forward into the future or back into the past. Nor do any of his equations show such a thing. What he *did* show is that a stationary clock and a moving clock would not show the same time relative to each other. That's due to what's known today as 'time dilation.' This isn't just theory either but has been proven over and over again.

Einstein also showed that time does not exist as a *natural* feature of the universe. There's no Cosmic Master Clock that ticks of the correct time for the whole universe. Time is nothing more than a concept used by sentient beings like us to separate events. In our universe there's no physical 'past' following along behind us, nor any physical 'future' waiting for us up ahead.

Answer 3

Einsteins theory never said that. According to Einstein, the speed of light will never be passed...it is the "speed limit" of the universe. Einstein just said that time is relative, and if u go at a speed close to the speed of light, u will, when u stop, would have gone forward in time less than the rest of the world. You have just travelled forward in time. According to Einstein, too, you cant go bak in time. but i still believe in time travel. In fact, i am submitting a research paper on that today in school.

Answer 4

The way I see it speed of light is the effective escape velocity of the universe as we know it. Who knows what will happen outside the epoch of the universe? Those who say c can't be exceeded, blah, narrow minded I say. Photons have been know to do some funny tunneling, exceeding c. Just because everything we "see" or can observe except certain photons which will remain nameless goes slower than c doesn't mean a thing. Besides I expect if one were outside the universe as we know it, one could blip back in at any point or any time.

Answer 5

I always thought that Einstein's theory was that you could go forward into the future, but not into the past. It's always made sense to me and I wouldn't be surprised if scientists don't already have some sort of machine already made.

Answer 6

He didn't have one. If there were particles that moved faster than light (called tachyons, just to name the things), they could not interact with anything going at sublight speeds as that would permit a movement of information at faster than the speed of light.

Answer 7

Something that vibrates so fast would cause friction because of air. Then it will actually disintegrate sooner or later. And yount just say that they should create something that do that. The inventor of the light bulb didnt do it in one day.

Answer 8

Scientists DID invent a machine that could propel matter at the speed of light.
The problem is, everything explodes once it reaches that speed.

They haven't found a way to resolve that little problem.

Answer 9

Please,
If your going to attempt To Quote the Great ONE
Please get it Right. I have not yet seen on Heard of any Thoeological Physisit Be bunk his theroyies yet! I see no problem in this Happening when we
Are able to creat the machine that can move at these speeds.

Answer 10

I'll say its another story and I hope it is not as incorrect as your idea of Einstein saying that time travel is possible, he said the opposite.
