Time Travel!

[xstex]

Just had a discussion with a friend and my mind was very boggled.

I've scientists go on about they would have to make restore points every so often to be able to go back, they say that it would NOT be possible to travel until these restore points are possible, so basically we couldn't go back to the world war, or 9/11 etc. But what confuses me is how do they create them? How is possible to create a "save" of everything that is happening? Seen or not seen. In the entire universe. i just don't no how they can think that this is possible. Yeah i know they no what there talking about but I just can't get my head around it. Its not like its a computer were everything can be stored, how would an entire universes activity be stored? If so wouldn't it cause war? Imagine the wrong hands got hold of it?

Anyone got any ideas, discussion?

( i expect stupid comments, but I'd like a serious discssion to)

Some people can tap into that saved info.

You did not read my post because if you did you would know that scientists say that would be not possible because theres no "restore points". Plus you need to try a spell checker.

Wow that is interesting! I would love to talk about but since this is the general forum not the politics forum no one is ever serious so we can't expect a good conversation unfourantly....

If we could travel through time, the whole time line would be fucked up.

You mean like a save point? Sounds very strange and impossible.... Heh you know Einstein said time travel is inevitable so I guess we should expect it to happen in the next 500 years. If the planet does explode or freeze over the next ice age.

... like they could start making them now i guess

then in the future they can come back to now

even though i have no idea what you're talking about and time travel is impossible

[CarChaseCityMan]

I didnt understand a word of that.

Damn I really should of put it there. Well if this fails hopefully I'll try one over there.
Thanks for the interest to. I'm glad theres some people who want good discussions rather than the normal crap.

I know I thought It sounded impossible, I read an article of a scientist thinking that it is but I just don't get how. And even if there was other ways how? If the storing is impossible. Then if its not stored how can it be taken back if that data of what happened everywhere at a specific time isn't here.

Can you be a little more specific with the saving thing. I ask because I really don't understand how that would work. I mean how can you store data about the entire universe?

You just need a car that can go faster then 80 miles an hour.

i say we should stay away from time travel. no matter how insignificant something you do may be it will screw everything else up. like in Doctor Who, or The Butterfly Effect.

And a flux capacitor.

This whole discussion is POINTLESS. Either time travel is impossible and is therefore not worth discussing OR time travel is possible and is therefore happening all the time (in terms of causality) and we're completely unaware/unaffected by it.
