Now, if time travel was to be true, it would infact allow you to travel through time, NOT space.

Meaning, if you were to jump through time so much as 5 minutes.... or even less.... then the Earth would have continued to spin and move while you stayed stationary.... meaning when you reach the time destination... you will either be stuck inside the planet or launched out in space.

If you seriously think you can start in a room, travel through time and end up inside that same room... you're very much mistaken.
That must be how they do it on Star Trek. :P They're already in a space ship, so they just jump back in time in an area of space they know will be clear when they arrive.
