yes theoritically it is possible
according to einstine time slows for a moving body in relation to object at rest so the body travels in future
but this cannot be noted in bodies travelling a few thousand miles per hour
the body must travel at light speed or more
this time difference is proved in certain expriments with electrons
another method is to think that a bed sheet is a 2D space time continnum if u drop a golf ball at center a curve is created arond in the sheet
if u drop a basketball a larger curved is created and a smaller object dropped on that curve would roll towards the basketball
this is how einstein explained the formation of gravity
like how the ball created a curve in the sheet all matter creates a curve ,like planet, sun, your body etc
larger the mass of the object larger is the curve in space time continnum
if a bowling ball is dropped on the sheet the sheet would tear
simillarly if a body of very high denstity like blackhole would rip open the space time continnum
so some scientists belive that blackholes are one way time machine if u can survive the crushing gravity of black hole
speaking of going back in time and changinng your future
some scientist belive the exictence of many universe -multiverse-if u go back and change the past like killing your dad you wont exist in that universe but will still be alive in a parallel universe

In all probability no, but who knows what some bright spark will come up with in the future!
The biggest problem with time travel is the fact that somebody travelling into the past might inadvertently do something that would prevent him (or lots of other people) from ever existing. He might accidentally kill his father before he had been conceived for example.
If that were to happen what would the result be?
If, on the other hand a time traveller could observe the past but not influence it, how could he be sure he was actually there and not just dreaming?
Philosophical arguments like this get a bit messy but you see what I mean.

Already exists, on a plane far beyond this world. It would be fair to say, in human terms, one can ride for free, like a magic carpet upon bent fabric whilst wearing a top hat within a windless environment. Altho the experience is truely beyond description, it has been attempted many times. My personal favourites are in song:
Beatles - Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
Gary Wright - Time Machine
Spooky Tooth - I Am The Walrus
Ain't it crazy? Yeah.....!

It's great here in 1950's. There is this guy called Elvis that is really cool and another one called Buddy Holly both have these amazing hair cuts that are swept up and back. I just met this other guy called Cliff Richard and he looks like the other two with his black leathers and hair do!
I'm coming back now as I'm missing...Dr Who .There here I am back...but what's that you say Dr Who's not back to until the Autumn well then I'm off to the next century.
Would be great wouldn't it if HG Well's fiction could become fact in his Time Machine. However, I think it's light years away yet.
Oh! Did I mention that I met JFK on my travels as well as Marilyn and she was just as georgous as she looks on screen.
Lol...... you have to have dreams don't you!

Ok,we are already travelling forwards through time,even quicker when we are in a car or in an aeroplane. travelling backwards through time is also possible when you view a video or photograph (more a record of time than time travel though) it has been said that if you could really travel back through time you wouldnt be able to travel back to a point before the technology existed to build your time machine, because if you did and your time machine got damaged how would you repair it to get back to the present?

If some one could create a time machine but the technology didn't come into existence for at least 10 million years.
They would immediately come back to to-day,sell their machine to us and we could travel even past where the guy originally invented it. Neat eh?

Traveling forward in time is easy enough. If you move close to the speed of light or sit in a strong gravitational field, you experience time more slowly than other people do--another way of saying that you travel into their future.
Traveling into the past is rather trickier. Relativity theory allows it in certain spacetime configurations: a rotating universe, a rotating cylinder and, most famously, a wormhole--a tunnel through space and time.

no it is impossible, time is a one way street.
we can try to move as fast as we possibly can in the universe even beyond the speed of light, it will only take us somewhere else insie it.
The best that can happen is if you go faster than light and then stop, you will see light of the past. you won't be able to wake up yesterday in your bed on planet earth as they will be somewhere else in the continuum.
watching yesterday's light does not make you travel in time any better than watching a documentary filmed a day before

A time machine was first used by Gallileo in 1611. It was called a telescope.
Looking through such devices means you can see stars not as they are, but as they were perhaps hundreds of years ago.
Alas, that is as close as I think any of us will get.

Well most likely nothing like a DeLorean from Back to the Future movie but you can try this article for starters

By the way it'll probably confuse you...It made my brain explode = )
