Something is in my head is shouting DONT DO IT!

I got to say I'm still skeptical, first see then believe.

pffff...time machine....I have already built one next week.

wow amazing vid!

It'd be cool if when he switches it on he'll receive like a 500 Petabyte flash disk with
1.cure for aging
2.5$ solution for global warming
3.INCREASE the Size of Your Member NOW!

I do hope that in the future there won't be many trekkies that'll be too afraid to violate the "temporal prime directive"

i guess it's that simple, like coffee!

how old is this clip???
i've heard that scientists nowadays know that IF time travel is possible, then it's only possible to travel to the future.

The narrator sounds the same as from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, was this an extra episode?

#7 nobady has proved that you can't travel to the past.

#7
i think it's pretty old.
did you look at the monitors they were using.
ancient stuff.

What can possibly go wrong?

I think time travel is physically not possible..

Von Daniken explained this theory many years ago in "Odyssey of the Gods", but religious leaders and scientists alike ridiculed him. Now it seems he was right!
It is so easy to put down the thoughts of men when those thoughts are new and not fully understood. But give a man a doctrate and suddenly it is believed. How many scientists and leaders have laughed at UFO's. Stephen Hawking says they exist and suddenly everyone listens.
Amazing!!!

Traveling through time, imo, is possible to the future, but not to the past, due to paradoxes.

#5 LOL hahahah dammm man nice just nice ....

~and ya i think if it did work first thing would happen would be a note on a tiny bit of paper saying "dont switch it on what every you do dont switch it on it causes the end of the universe sigened yourself 5 seconds from now .....joke"

#14 do you mean ''Granpa' paradox? But what if you travel trough time and do not/can not great a paradox?

I'll explain to you why this method of time travel won't work:

We're on planet Earth, which revolves around the Sun at approximately 30 km/hr in an irregular, oval trajectory. This means that a position on Earth will never be on the same position in the plane of the universe. Let's just say that this device successfully twists space; what will result is a stretch of "twisted space" that follows the trajectory of Earth's trajectory. The device in the near future will be far from the spatial position of the device today.

Since the device must remain in an exact position in the universe, I would suggest that this device be built on the platform of a non-moving (which means not affected by Earth's and the Sun's gravitational field) space station.

This guy talks about accomplishment but nothing's done... Sounds all rubbish to me.

Ah nice, we "just" have to twist space

#17 that cleared it up a bit, but its still confusing stuff to get a grip on

#18 This guy you talk about is one of the greatest astrophysician in the world. Just letting you know...

Yes. Coffee and space are EXACTLY the same.. Bullcrap

The earth is flat. Heretic! You shall be burnt alive.

Go back in time and see what people said back "then". Go check out most basic things that were laughable back "then". Now imagine what people will say thousands of years from now.

Just posting "this is how it works" is just rubbish, anything can and will happen, given time.

Here is more info on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Mallett

Intrigiung !

What would happen i wonder if they built one......and used it to send a duplictae machine back in time? would they then be able to " leapfrog" ever further backwards ?

Hmmm why would anyone from future want to sand anything back to past, wouldn't that create entire new future changed because that information/object or something?

#21 Did you mean he is one of the greatest "astrophysicists" or do you mean this guy is a doctor who works in space?

I dont think it works. But I wouldnt stick my hand in there either.

I dont belive in time traveling, we would seen some proof now in that case.

Time is a temporary thing given to mankind. "When the seventh trumpet sounds time will be no more."
Thats from The book of Revelations.

Time is a physical property. It is not uniform.

It is subject to mass, acceleration, gravity, among other things. (spacial dimensions and what not). Which makes it subject to to laws of entropy as well. (Special Relativity-Length, mass, velocity and time are relative to velocity of the observers)-backs up #17
Most people think of time as linear. Like I am standing on a street corner watching a parade go by.

If you were outside of the restrictions of the four dimensions (directly knowable) that we live in, you would not be subject to time. It could be manipulated.(the bending and folding of space-time) However, I don't know of anyone who can remove themselves from these restrictions. Unless there was supernatural intervention I.E.: the other six (indirectly knowable) dimensions??? There is support that shows that the other dimensions are superior to 1-4. For example, the 3rd dimension can manipulate the 2nd and it is superior. The 6th to the 5th-1st, and so on. As a crud example, you can bend or fold a piece of paper, to Mr Flat, on the piece of paper (2nd dimension), it would be confusing. Outside of his understanding of reality.

"People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between the past, the present, and the future, is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." -Albert Einstein

You can look back in time, and you can go into the future. But you cannot go to the past, and you cannot look into the future.

I still want some future coffee though!

So light is like a spoon in coffee???

If so, i'll be twisting space and stepping back in time at around 9am this morning.

Don't forget to remember tomorrow!

And light is both a particle and a wave.
Black holes are only theoretical, all we can do is see a dark spot. It is good science to assume what it is, it is bad science to say what it is. just a thought.

Where is my space-time-light coffee? (new drink at Starbucks)

Wow this special episode never gets old =) I Just woke up 10 minutes ago from a dream where I was actually time traveling in.... And it was to the past to see some girl... so who's to say it isn't possible

I used a time machine. It's Called Tequila. Traveled 4 days in the future. Woke up in a dumpster. Naked like the Terminatlr.

Lol #30... tool

#35 greatest comment on snotr of all time lol.

it works ! tomorrow i saw someone who i met in 2012.

what kind of weird situations you will get ? suicide will be totally different hey i want to kill myself, lets go back in time and kill my parents

#8 Ironically, the narrator is arguably the greatest Time Lord of all time, Tom Baker.

omg turn the damn mashine off or else you probably will start a world-war or somthing..... and btw humans has always been able to travel to the future we do it every day !

#16 Well I quess we'll find out whether you can or cannot create paradoxes once we get a working timemachine. Until then I still think it's only possible to travel to the future.

Traveling through time is impossible. It is against the very definition of "time". Period. Everything else, including this guy's talk is bullshit. Just messing with viewers' minds. If it is how he says it is - why doesn't he do it? Instead of talking shit.

#31 - Right on!

have you guys not seen HOT TUB TIME MACHINE
it is possible.

I had that dream once, I was walking around my old house and I knew that it's (it was?) 15 years ago. I saw myself and my parents and the whole dream was so peaceful! And I was calm like never before in my life because I knew that nothig wrong's going to happen for the next 15 years. Great feeling

I'd send my past self the 10 million I rob next week. I'd not get arrested because I haven't done it yet. Unless the pre-cogs catch me

first message comes through "turn it off, turn it off! there's robots everywhere"

this is how the star trek warp drive works. really intruiging idea. the warp bubble moves the space inside it, so the ship itself is not moving.

cocaine is a helluva drug
