Is SR-allowable time travel "future-only"?
Relativity theory allows for the possibility of time travel to the future, according to time dilation as illustrating by the twin paradox.
Wikipedia says, "it is currently unknown whether the laws of physics would allow backwards time travel."
My question is, doesn't relativity theory remove any uncertainty as to the possibility of past-ward time travel? What unknowns in SR give room for its possibility?
