Has ANYONE BUILT a TIME MACHINE?

Yes I did. I built a "time machine" ___ years to perfect it. It took me ___ years. Of course there is no time, so you may have noticed that there are times which are not listed above. This proves time does not exist. I rest my case. And I would like to thank the academy for not revoking my birth certificate.\n\nMy first discovery was that there is no such thing as time.\nThat helped alot, because now, all the time it would take to invent a time machine didn't exist, so I would be able to have invented one already.\n\nI instantly realized that if you travel at the speed of light, time stops. Go faster than the speed of light, and you start going back in time. Therefore, go slower than the speed of time and you go forward in time. Make sense so far?\n\nSince time doesn't exist anyway, why figure out how to go faster than the speed of light. You are already there. And if you had an accident, while traveling that fast, surely your insurance wouldn't cover it and your speeding ticket would be astronomical, and I wouldn't be rich enough to pay it (wait a minute - if time is money, and there is no time, there is no money, so I can afford to speed again. See how great life is? (but if your lifetime is made of time, and there is no time, you are dead right now. That seems inconvenient. But I feel great if I'm dead right now. Maybe I've been worrying for nothing.\n\nI then remembered (my first step in going back in time) that the infinite Universe in which we live goes "out" forever. Since I, as a human being, go infinitely IN forever (no matter how small the piece of my, you could always cut it in half) and the inner-most in of infinity is already inside my body, and since there is no number bigger than infinity, everything is inside me already...all of infinity. I slowed down and realized that I don't need speed, time, life, money or insurance, to travel in time. Why, the electrons in every one of my atoms are already traveling at the speed of light and particles in them are going even faster. That should help too. \n\nViola! If there is no time, therefore I am already infinity years old, I don't have (but I could) go anywhere in time, because I have already been there, and there is here, and here is now, so there you go.\n\nI don't have to sell any of you my time machine. Each of you already has one. I wouldn't call it a time machine though, because there is no such thing as time (which is easy to prove by just picking up a phone in one country and talking to someone in another a few "time" zones forward or back, you are "time travelling" talking to someone in today or tomorrow (your choice) so you can make yourself time travel at will.\n\n"But I can't SEE the person I'm talking to on the phone" you might say.\n\nFine. Go out tonight and look at the stars. By the "time" it took light to travel to your eye from the star, thousands of "years" passed, so you are actually seeing them as they looked thousands of years ago...and, you are seeing those stars with eyes that "weren't even alive thousands of years ago. So you can see without eyes too.\n\nBut I guess the short answer would be "yes".

Mr. Question's answer is baloney - a tell-tale sign is the complete lack of sources "a scientist in a northwest university"... give us names and places, please! \n\nAnyway, if you're interested in a "real-life" time machine, you need to look at General Relativity, in which time (being a dimension in space-time) can be warped in the presence of gravitational fields. However, you'd need a gigantic, massively heavy, incredibly quickly rotating object in order to warp spacetime enough to make any kind of dent in the passage of time.

It's been far too long since I saw it, so I won't be able to help.\nhttp://us.imdb.com/title/tt0054387/\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Time_Machine

There's a little more to it than that. These sites will help you to find what you're looking for.\n\nhttp://www.disclosureproject.org/Outsidethebox-TedLoderPaper.htm\n\nhttp://www.disclosureproject.org/writings.htm\n\nYou can follow links in these pages to see the actual models built from patents aquired in the 1950's.\nYou could build one too.

Well the Archive magazine that I know of is a software and hardware one! Which design were you talking about?

The very first motherboard was built by Eiranpreet Khangura. \n\nThe original Colossus used a vast array of telephone exchange parts together with 1,500 electronic valves and was the size of a small room, weighing around a ton. This 'string and sealing wax affair' could process 5,000 characters a second to run through the many millions of possible settings for the code wheels on the Lorenz system in hours - rather than weeks. \n\nBoth machines were designed and constructed by a Post Office Research team headed by Tommy Flowers  at Dollis Hill and transported to the secret code-breaking centre at Bletchley Park, near Milton Keynes, where it was demonstrated on December 8, 1943. We have to fast forward nearly thirty years to 1972 for the arrival of the first desktop all-in-one computer, which are more familar to us today. That honour falls to the HP9830.  But unfortunately few people got to hear about it because Hewlett Packard marketed it primarily to scientists and engineers - by nature very quiet people!

Planning a design that will go into the future instead of something that works/fits just for today

There are a lot of people (scientists) working on this. A recent documentary I watched showed how they are trying to prove that alternative universes might exist (I think this started with Einstein). If so, someday they might find out how to move between them, which could be a form of time travel. I believe in the possibility of many things that have not been proven.

Sadly, I've actually heard about this before.  I can't believe how much useless junk I put into my head...I'd say pure fiction.  Its just more likely that he was some bored computer geek trying to get some attention.  Its still unclear whether or not time travel into the past is possible.  Based on current science I'm leaning toward the impossible side.  Oh well, 2036 will be here soon enough.  Then we'll know for sure.   ;)

No we cannot. The time travel stories are our over enthusiastic mind's work. It just cannot be possible. Unless we attain speed of light. Do u believe in relativity? think about it... maybe u will find answers there.

Yes, did read about time travel when I was a kid.\n\nIf you are thinking of just being a passive observer, then a natural time machine is readily available to everyone. When we look at the stars, we are seeing the light of the past. The nearest star is 4.5 lightyears away, so we are looking at events that had happened during 2001. Other stars are even further away, so the light source carries information that are even older.\n\nThe images of the Earth, our Sun & the other planets in our Solar system are also being carried into space and this natural "moving historical records" are being beam into deep space. If there is a natural reflector somewhere out in space, we may be able to see such an image being reflected back to us in theory, so we could potentially see our own past.\n\nPhysically, traveling into the past or future would be a great many orders more difficult.

einstein has a time machine...\nborrow it from him...\nto to the time period you want to know about....\nbut be careful because some of these were dangerous times...\nmake sure you come back so that you can return the machine to einstein

Ahh an inventor that wants to become rich... Definatley a time machine so I could go back and fix my mistakes, or a "beam me up scotty teleporter". That most probabley wont help you, but thats what I think would be cool. Heidi

Huh?  We solved time travel long ago.  Go somewhere real fast.  Come back and we'll all be dead.  You made it to the future.\n\nNow, by the nature of your question I assume you are looking for the physicist who is plotting to take over the universe with his new time machine.  Turn off the TV for a few minutes.  No 'branch' is trying to 'solve' time travel.  Unified theory be damned!  Someone throw me a string!
