“Today, we know that time travel need not be confined to myths, science fiction, Hollywood movies, or even speculation by theoretical physicists. Time travel is possible. For example, an object traveling at high speeds ages more slowly than a stationary object. This means that if you were to travel into outer space and return, moving close to light speed, you could travel thousands of years into the Earth's future.” IfsKnowsNeedsYearsMeanLightAgeTodayEarthMovingSpaceFictionExampleObjectsReturnHollywoodScience FictionSpeedMythTime TravelSpeculationPhysicistTheoreticalConfinedOuter SpaceHigh SpeedHollywood MoviesStationary Book:Time: A Traveler's Guide Source: Time: A Traveler's Guide
“Time travel used to be thought of as just science fiction, but Einstein's general theory of relativity allows for the possibility that we could warp space-time so much that you could go off in a rocket and return before you set out.” UsedSpaceFictionPossibilityTheoryReturnTravelScience FictionUsed To BeTime TravelRocketsRelativityWarpSpace TimeRocket ScienceTheories Of RelativityGeneral Relativity Author:Stephen Hawking

“For me, the historical and genealogical library is the one I use. I'm working on, I'll say, it's a time travel novel. I haven't written very much of it.

“In effect, I grew up in a sort of timewarp, a place where times are scrambled up. There are elements of my childhood that look to me now, in memory more like the 1940s or the 1950s than the 1960s. Jack [Womack] says that that made us science fiction writers, because we grew up experiencing a kind of time travel.” LooksKindMadeMemoriesFictionChildhoodEffectsGrewElementsGrew UpScience FictionTime Travel1960sFiction Writers Author:William Gibson
