Is Time Travel Possible? A Physicist's Perspective

  • Thread starter MattMartin
  • Start date
In summary, according to a physicist's perspective, time travel is theoretically possible but extremely difficult to achieve. The concept of time travel is based on Einstein's theory of relativity, which suggests that time is relative and can be affected by gravity and speed. However, the technology and energy required to manipulate time on a large scale are currently beyond our capabilities. Some physicists also argue that time travel may violate the laws of physics, making it impossible. While small-scale time travel has been achieved through experiments with subatomic particles, the idea of traveling through time like in science fiction remains purely hypothetical.
