If time travel existed and you could go back in time or go forward into the future what time would you go to?

Good question. I'd would do both. i would travel to the future to see the status of society, if things are extremely bad find out what caused it and come back to the present and make an effort to prevent that from happening.\n\nNow for the past. I would take all available video footage and documentaion of the events of 9/11 go back at least one month prior to it happening and give that information to the MEDIA not the government that way WE the people can convice the government to take action to prevent 9/11.\n\nThird go back five years to New Orleans with all documention about katriana and hope that the people take better action to prevent the destrtuction of what happened there.

Assuming that I could go either forwards OR backwards in time...\n\nI'd make it my mission to show the US's Founding Fathers the world they helped develop. I'd also enlighten Newton, Einstein, Kepler, Copernicus, Galileo, and Edison.\n\nThen I'd go back to the era of the Romans and snag me some priceless artifacts to give/sell to museums. And then I'd head to the future to check out the stock market.

Traveling into the future is possible.  Going back through time, however, is not.

I would love to travel forward in time and see just how our wonderful island paradise has changed. I would also travel back in time to see how wonderful and simple life in Hawai'i actually was. Aren't you curious about that?\n\nHawai'i no ka oi bruddah!!!

umm...either i'd say that you must have copied the history channel, you are insane, or you perhaps found a way to go faster than the speed of light.\n\nsupposedly that would happen if you went that fast.  time slows the faster you go, and as you near the speed of light it virtually stands still, so if you go faster, then you start heading back in time.\n\ni doubt that you figured out a way though, so i'd go with you being insane if you truly believed that you could do visit ages past in person.

I would have the super power to stop,play,rewind and ,fastforward time. I doing any thing instead of looking up a history report I'll go back in time and see it.

Time travel occurs everyday with everyone.  Just sitting in front of the computer now I am advancing into the future at a rate of one second per second.  What the clock on the jet experiences is time dilation.  This simply means that for the clock on the Jet, time slowed down.  In this sense it is possible to travel into the future.  This would be done by travelling at extremely high speed.  This would essentially "fast forward" you into the future, but is a one way ticket as there is no way back.\n\nTime travel as a sci-fi concept (e.g Dr Who or Back to the Future) is not possible (as currently thought), as this would mean travelling into the past as well as the future.  There are some theories that could allow time travel into both the future and the past  However, in these theories, you could not travel futher back in time than the instant the time machine was built - the reasons for which are complicated and stop paradoxes from occuring!

If time is stopped exactly at 00:00, you'd be in neither.  Theoretically, you'd be bending spacetime so you be everywhere at once and time would not matter to you.  Oooooh....Scary!\n\nBut if your legs were hanging split over a fence (left foot one side(the west) and the right foot on the other side (the east) ) and the "time line" went over your chest, your left leg would be 1 day ahead and your right would be in the current day.  Your chest would be in the current day since theoretically 23hr:59m:59s.2999999ss is the last instance you are in a current day.

ok i can tell you that i travel through time, and it is aquite remarkable thing, infact you travel through time too, at a very unremarkable rate of 1 second per second....pretty neat huh, your already a time traveler

It is an open question of physics, whether it is possible to travel backwards in time. No one knows yet.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_travel\n\nBut it is known now that it is possible to travel forward in time faster than normal, you just should move around very quickly, close to the speed of light. That is called the Twin Paradox.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_paradox

I would go back to about 400,000 years ago in what is now Southern Iraq or to about 33,000 years ago in the same area.  That is because I am VERY curious about what was going on there...\n\nHowever, I would NOT want to stay there and would DREAD going back in time to ANY place on the earth.  Most all previous times in nearly all places were very, very dangerous compared to living now.\n\nThe time we are born into is the best one for us.  \n\nNo matter what time a person is born into, it is their duty to WORK in THE PRESENT MOMENT of their time in order to make a BETTER FUTURE.\n\nYou can find out a little bit more about this on my blog  http://360.yahoo.com/ki_te_moana

according to einstein's theory of relativity, if you are able to travel at a speed faster than that of light then you will be able to travel back into time. got my point? if you leave earth today at 1 million km/hr, then you will be back on earth before you started out(means you will have travelled back in time) it cannot be said in which year you will return because there is no relation for this case. but good luck with your time travel!!!

we r travelling at 1 second forward per second.\n\nIf that's not that u meant, the easiest and most likely way to get a time machine to time travel is for yourself in the future to travel back now to give yourself the time machine now which u got in the "past" from the "future yourself" coming back to gave it to u.

i would give anything for a chance to go back in time

This is a tough one to answer because time travel could potentially wipe out people's existence, however assuming that I could go back as many times as I wanted (in case my actions caused something negative to happen and I wanted to change them back again) I would probably:\n\ni) Go back and witness the "Big Bang" to see what it's all about \nii) Travel to 1963 to watch the visit of President Kennedy to Dallas and see if anybody was on the grassy knoll.\niii) There would also be a number of people I would love to meet: Einstein, Shakespeare, King Arthur and some of my own ancestors!\n\nThat's a fun question, thanks!

I agree with the above answer....but think about this for a second.....if time travel ever becomes possible...we would all travel back in time to clean up stuff and change what we think we need to.....and since no one has shown up to change anything recently.....it just shows that time travel will never happen....

Time travelling is a very difficult topic.\n\nYou can supposedly travel into the past if you travel faster than the speed of light but this involves getting a source of infinite energy as when matter gets closer and closer to the speed of light its mass will dramatically increase.\n\nThis is said to be very unlikely but general relativity says it may be possible on highly unusual circumstances.\n\nWormholes, permitted by general relativity,  could be possible only if it is traversable.\n\nIf you read general relativity and objects at speed of light you get time, space and gravity based dilations where light appears to be bent by gravity and arrives at an object at different times.\n\nYet again the object has to be travelling at 0.99c or faster!!\n\nI says time travel will never happens but i wish it would.
