Time Travel

One of the greatest mysteries of our time is time travel.

'Is it even possible?' 


'Didn't they try this on a platypus once?' and


'I think I saw a movie about this.' 

Are just some of the reactions people first have when hearing about time travel. In fact, in a recent study, 58% of people said they really did believe scientists tried it on a platypus once.

Before we delve too deep into the murky waters of time travel in the future, and I know you are all anxious to go there, we must first take a look at time travel in the past and now.

In the past, scientists have worked numerous nights and days trying to figure out complicated mathematical formulas on how to travel through the space time continuum.

There has been once instance where time travel has been achieved. Back in 1985, Doc Brown, a famous scientist, created a car that could travel in time. All you had to do was set a time and date, and get up to speeds of 88mph.

Once the car reached 88mph, the car disappeared from the current reality and zoomed to either the past or future.

'If this actually happened, wouldn't they have video footage?'


What a very good question, my intuitive reader. Those who claimed to have seen time travel in a movie before, are in fact telling the truth.

Go to your nearest video store, or use Netflix if you desire, and rent 'Back to the Future 1,2, and 3'. These three documentaries show real video footage of the first time travel.

Sadly, the only car ever created for time travel was destroyed. No human since has been able to reinvent time travel in any way.

'Can we delve deep into the murky waters of time travel in the future now?'


If you insist. Since time travel hasn't been created yet, it will never be created. This may seem like a bad thing, but in all actuality, it's not.

In the future large alien squid-like things will take over the earth. Fortunately for us those aliens weren't smart enough to invent time travel either. So, our world will remain the same, and we won't ever have to worry about mutant alien squids killing us.

Here are a few quotes about what others have to say about time travel.

'Once confined to fantasy and science fiction, time travel is now simply a... problem' - Michio Kaku

'Time travel is [not] possible' - Clifford Pickover
'If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, it mus t be a duck' - anonymous
