More people than I thought would have answered "yes" on my most recent poll, regarding the possibility of time travel. If you haven't answered it yet, I'd like to ask you to do so now.

I'd like those who answered yes to explain their reasoning. What is your perception of time?
I think that in order to travel somewhere, it has to be a solid, physical place. Time is more of a concept. It passes, but it can't be reversed or made to speed up. The idea of time travel suggests that time exists within a frame by frame playback, that everything that ever happened is still happening somewhere, and that everything that will happen is already doing so somewhere. This could bring up a whole s---storm of discussion on the theory of the multiverse or some deep s---, but you know I'm much too lazy to try and think all of that through. Let me know what you think. -
....life is made of nothing but time o-o
-
People's perception of life is not only counted in seconds and hours, but in moments
- Meeeeee -
Neither of these responses are satisfying. Let me rephrase.
How does your perception of time relate to the possibility of time travel? -
Well...I think it may be possible one way or another but...it depends on the perception of life? o-o Cause basically it's made up of time so there would have to be... idk o-o

...Jesus f---.

I heard on TV that if there was a train that traveled around the world at the speed of light for like a week, the week would have been the time passed on the train and time that would have passed on earth would have been like 100 years or something. So theoretical, time travel is most likely possible.

o-o

Where on television did you hear this?
-
Time travel isn't very plausible to me. I don't think of it as something you can revisit or skip. It's irreversible and everflowing.

The science channel. It's literally called "Science" :I
-
That's pretty much what I think, too, Benito.
Does this mean that the time is somehow different inside the train than it is in the environment surrounding it? -
Also, although I don't think going back in time is possible just forward only without taking your self out of the time line of history. It's not very possible to visit your self in the future though...
-
I think the time in the train would be significantly different In the train, yes.
-
That's hard for me to grasp.
