What do you think about time travel? I personally think that it's quite possible after reading this.

Philosophers have long known the impossibility of 'time' travel, like the impossibility of traveling on a purple winged unicorn!

Re: New Research Shows That Time Travel Is Mathematically Possible
Time travel to the 'past' is a feature of Reality, it is called imagination/memory.
Time travel to the 'future' is the same, imagination.
'Time' exists in 'thought/imagination', as does the 'past' and 'future'..
'Time' is a theory meant to explain the mirage of 'motion'.
Time exists in 'thought', that is why there will never be some machine, like in the movies, that will whisk someone into a mirage!
One can, of course, experience moments that are perceived as 'in the future', but that is not 'time traveling', that is merely our eyes blinking open for a moment.

Two different things. Imagination is imagination and time travel is time travel.Namelesss wrote: ↑March 19th, 2018, 9:10 pmTime travel to the 'past' is a feature of Reality, it is called imagination/memory.

None at all for 'time travel', outside of the imagination/thought (and novels and movies...).

Actually time travel happens not infrequently.

Perhaps.
Perhaps you are familiar with evidence of which I am unaware.
Care to share?
Other than the imaginary sort, of which I mentioned, of course.
Not ambiguous grainy wishful pictures like the YouTube UFOs, but something a bit more... credible to the non-believer?
I'm certainly willing to examine anything even remotely credible! *__-

Re: New Research Shows That Time Travel Is Mathematically Possible
Probably the most famous (well known) is that Gabby Gifford's husband, Mark Kelly traveled 5 milliseconds into the future during his International Space Station trip (especially notable in that he has an identical twin, who is now even younger than he is/was)Namelesss wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2018, 1:50 amPerhaps.

For instance, how, exactly, do they determine that he is now older? What happened to the 5 milliseconds that are now, assumedly, missing from his life?
What is the reference point?
How measured?
Hypotheses?
So far, this sounds a bit like the '21 grams' legend.
How can they tell that Now! is different?
And how can they determine so clearly that one twin is 5 milliseconds different now?
IF the findings are consistently and independently verifiable (sounds murky to me), then we can proceed to hypotheses and theories.
Until then, my skeptical Zetetic is in full bloom! *__-
Thank you for your example, but it seems to ask more questions than it answers.

No matter we’re you are or where you go, you will find that you are here, and it is now.

Re: New Research Shows That Time Travel Is Mathematically Possible
Well, I suppose I could reprove Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity, but that would be tedious and I am not confident that the exercise would be more profitable to you than Wikipedia or a cute YouTube video doing the same thing.Namelesss wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2018, 9:04 pmOkay, food for thought, and questions.LuckyR wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2018, 11:22 am

Re: New Research Shows That Time Travel Is Mathematically Possible
Well, I might be a blind dullard, as jerlands has perceived, but I can tell the difference between a bunch of numbers that exist in the imaginations of some mathematicians and a real, rootin' tootin' apple when I'm hungry.LuckyR wrote: ↑March 24th, 2018, 10:57 amWell, I suppose I could reprove Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity, but that would be tedious and I am not confident that the exercise would be more profitable to you than Wikipedia or a cute YouTube video doing the same thing.Namelesss wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2018, 9:04 pm

You cannot bury me in numbers and and claim that I just ate an apple.
Time travel is something that has piqued the imagination for a long time, people want to believe. Just imagine if... fix those regrets, get the girl, don't ...
Someone with no dog in the race might be a bit more critical of methods and sources, etc... then someone seeking validation, alone, for instance.
'Paradoxes' are sure signs of error, usually the assumption.
The uncritically unexamined assumption, in this case, is that 'time travel' (like in the movies), is possible. 'Math' says so. Check!
On the other hand, math cannot do more than suggest. All sciences are feeder branches of the tree of philosophy.
Philosophy can refute 'math', or any other science.
When the 'notion' of time travel is philosophically (critically) examined, all avenues end in paradox, the red light of error.
The only assumption being examined is that of 'time travel', thus the error is in that assumption, as highlighted by all the paradoxes encountered.
If 'math' disagrees, then the 'math' will eventually, fail, as it can be offered to explain mirages...
