I think I may have stumbled onto a way to do it.

More later.

If one could get to a distant planet before the light from the earth arrives there, one could watch through a telescope events that recently unfolded here all over again.

Is it possible??

Please explain in more detail if you would...

Hey, while you're back in the eighties would you buy $50,000.00 in Microsoft stock for me please? If you can't go back that far I have some lottery numbers and i'd like you to get me some tickets.

Years ago, a caller to Coast to Coast AM stated that he had a "time machine." The guy was quite a showman, as he knew how to build up suspense while telling the story. He said that he was at a phone booth, it was about 2:00 AM, and a crowd was starting to gather wanting to get a look at this amazing device. It wasn't until sometime later--like a few days later--that he revealed that the "time machine" was a device that the user puts into the palm of his hand and plays with, thus allowing him to pass the time...

Theoretically it is possible however . . .

1) Nobody knows for sure what happens when one exceeds the speed of light (something you'll have to do) -- we're not even sure it is possible. For certain, time grinds almost to a halt for the traveler in relation to time on Earth when approaching the speed of light.

2) The amount of energy required to move an object weighing 200 lbs even close to the speed of light requires more energy than the total energy used on this planet in all of history.


I'm thinking a wormhole might be more plausible (or a modified DeLorean).

One doesn't actually have to go to another planet . . . all we have to do is catch up in space with the event one wants to "replay," stop the spacecraft and watch it. Again, and again as a matter of fact. While one couldn't "change" the past, they could change the future (or rewrite it) for people in far off places who have yet to witness the event.

Somebody may have already done this to us. We'll never know.

Geeez, your guys a way overthinking this, all you need to do is slingshot around the sun at warp 9 and you go into a time warp. For crying out loud people, get with it!

Or even easier just travel to "The City on the Edge of Forever" and jump through the portal.

Well, while we wait for CJ to sort it out for us, here's an interesting thought.

If there is a time machine, wouldn't we then see evidence of it being used?

Say the last administration is just a wrinkle in time. You know, sort of a "what if?"

Not if you can only go forward in time.

Tachyons are hypothetical. However, moving matter faster than light is an interesting topic.

Stand up in a clear space and spin round. It is not too difficult to turn at one revolution each two seconds. Suppose the Moon is on the horizon. How fast is it spinning round your head? It is about 385,000 km away, so the answer is 1.21 million km/s, which is more than four times the speed of light! It might sound ridiculous to say that the Moon is going round your head when really it is you who is turning, but according to general relativity all co-ordinate systems are equally valid, including rotating ones. So isn't the Moon going faster than the speed of light? This is quite difficult to account for.

As per my singular New Year Resolution, I will not post right now.

Somewhat the theme of the 1956 X Minus One radio broadcast "The Old Die Rich" written by H L Gold :
