Presentation transcript:

Time travel is thought to be impossible but take a look at these quotes: "Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible." (Lord Kelvin, president, Royal Society, 1895) "I think there is a world market for maybe five computers." (Thomas Watson, chairman of IBM, 1943) "There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in their home." (Ken Olsen, president, chairman and founder of Digital Equipment Corp., 1977) "The telephone has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us." (Western Union internal memo, 1876) "Airplanes are interesting toys but of no military value." (Marshal Ferdinand Foch, French commander of Allied forces during the closing months of World War I, 1918)

"The wireless music box has no imaginable commercial value. Who would pay for a message sent to nobody in particular?" (David Sarnoff's associates, in response to his urgings for investment in radio in the 1920's) "Professor Goddard does not know the relation between action and reaction and the need to have something better than a vacuum against which to react. He seems to lack the basic knowledge ladled out daily in high schools." (New York Times editorial about Robert Goddard's revolutionary rocket work, 1921) "Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?" (Harry M. Warner, Warner Brothers, 1927) "Everything that can be invented has been invented." (Charles H. Duell, commissioner, US Office of Patents, 1899)

The grandfather paradox If you went back in time and killed your grandfather you would never be born. If you were never born, how could you go back in time and kill your grandfather?

Worm holes are the most likely candidates for time travel. Worm holes are tunnels through space- time that connect two areas of space or two different times in space. Microscopic worm holes may come in and out of existence all the time. Negative energy (repulsive gravity) is needed to enlarge the wormhole and keep it open.

Interesting facts about time travel Building a time machine would be nearly impossible but time travel is not against the laws of physics. Scientists try not to mention “time machines” in case the story gets picked up by supermarket tabloids.

Parallel Universes Parallel universes could exist. Some theories say that every time there is more than one possible outcome, both things happen in different universes. Some universes would be very different from this one. Others may be very similar. There could be an infinite number of such worlds.
