Is Forward Time Travel Possible?

Newton's Universe - No, time advances at a set rate. One cannot accelerate the progression of time.


The Multi-Verse - No, one cannot travel through time. One can only travel to an alternate universe that may have evolved to a higher level than one's original universe.


Einstein's Universe - Yes

 

According to Einstein's Universe travel into the future is possible. This is because he has linked time and space as one continuum. In this continuum, if one accelerates to reach the speed of light then time stops. The mass traveling at the speed of light will no longer experience time, but everything around the traveling mass will continue to experience time as usual. This theory has in fact been proven in a study conducted by Professor Carol Allie at the University of Maryland. Professor Allie tested this theory with the help of two
atomic clocks. She placed one clock on a super-sonic jet and left the other clock on the air force base. The jet was then flown around the world. When the jet returned, the clock on the jet was slightly slower than the clock left on the base. This proved that faster moving objects
experience a slower time. The only limitation preventing this travel through time is our limitation of energy. In order to achieve this speed, man must accumulate a force equivalent to an exploding star and be able to gradual apply it so that the time traveler would gradually
accelerate at the rate of one G per minute. Any faster rate would crush the passenger, making survival impossible. Even if the energy could be harnessed and accelerated with moderation at one G a minute, it would take a tremendously long amount of time for the masses remaining still before the traveler finally achieved the speed of light. As a
result, forward time travel is possible, but it is also highly unpractical at this point in human evolution ("Brian's Views...").
