Are there items for going back as well as forward in time? Don’t forget to take a key chain….(See Monty comic).

Do not take a defibrolator. We were back a couple thousand years, and decided to test it on some guy the Romans had just executed. People still talk about it.

Ever notice time travelers never come back? Here’s why- Traveling foward in time has never been possible so those who go back stay there. Unfortunatly, those who do travel back in time arive at the point in space where their part of the planet was at that time. As the planet is in constant motion (at an incredible rate of speed), they always materialise in an inhospitable enviroment, usually the hard vacuum of outer space which is, of course, invariably fatal.

Time is a human construct. Time just measures the vibrations of subatomic particals. To go back in time, all the particals in the universe would have to be reversed. One can travel forward in time because speed (appears to) slows down the particle vibrations of the moving body. And yes one would have to adjust to the planetary movement if one went back in time.

My grandfather (an old Cavalryman) is laughing in his grave: the ‘stableboy’ who earned the base pay rate has to be replaced with a team of robotic engineers with 6 figure salaries!

Actually, according to Einstein’s theory of relativity, the faster you travel, time slows down. If you travel just under the speed of light, you can travel forward at a rapid rate.
I feel that if one can break the light barrier (you may remember the cartoon TV show, Star Blazers, which had a ship powered by tachyon ion particles, which do happen to be real, and do travel faster than light), you can travel backward in time.

I heard about it, as an Ex-Grunt, having something that can hump the excess weight is a boon, Problem was the damn thing cost more than 10 real horses, and was always breaking down.
