If we could ever travel back in time...
 

...then why are there no people from the future yet?

LOL @ your question, but how do you know there aren't :anon

i don't think it'll be ever possbile to travel back.. its possbile to travel to the future

It's been discussed ad nauseam and at least give credit to Stephen Hawking about that question.

Here is the answer from the late "Carl Sagan".


"First of all, it might be that you can build a time machine to go into the future, but not into the past, and we don't know about it because we haven't yet invented that time machine. Secondly, it might be that time travel into the past is possible, but they haven't gotten to our time yet, they're very far in the future and the further back in time you go, the more expensive it is. Thirdly, maybe backward time travel is possible, but only up to the moment that time travel is invented. We haven't invented it yet, so they can't come to us. They can come to as far back as whatever it would be, say A.D. 2300, but not further back in time.

Then there's the possibility that they're here alright, but we don't see them. They have perfect invisibility cloaks or something. If they have such highly developed technology, then why not? Then there's the possibility that they're here and we do see them, but we call them something else?UFOs or ghosts or hobgoblins or fairies or something like that. Finally, there's the possibility that time travel is perfectly possible, but it requires a great advance in our technology, and human civilization will destroy itself before time travelers invent it.

I'm sure there are other possibilities as well, but if you just think of that range of possibilities, I don't think the fact that we're not obviously being visited by time travelers shows that time travel is impossible."

you don't remember that guy that made a shit load of money off the stock market in like 2 weeks and when he was arrested he claimed he was a time traveler?

:1orglaugh

I dont know but this is a stupid thread.

Yeah, I remember that story, but it wasn't true and it was from Weekly world news.

This is bullshit. It's true that people from the future will only show up here once a time traveller has been made in the future. But if it's the year 2300 that invented it then why cant they go any further back than the year 2300. It's either a time traveller or it's not.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh well if it was true you think they would tell anyone.. lol now I belive it because it's on a hoax site

Yeah that was odd.. I wonder how he really made that money...

Those were quotes from Carl Sagan, and he died. So if you want to argue with him, hire a psychic or buy a ouija board.

Anyway, you're trying to give arguments for something that does not exist. Maybe we are in the first timeline right now and it hasn't been created yet. I mean, it's still fiction. Try to be open minded.:glugglug

He did not exist. It was a fake story.
