- in Summary
More than 100 years ago, a famous scientist named Albert Einstein came up with an idea about how time works. He called it relativity. This theory says that time and space are linked together. Einstein also said our universe has a speed limit: nothing can travel faster than the speed of light (186,000 miles per second). What does this mean for time ...
We can't use a time machine to travel hundreds of years into the past or future. That kind of time travel only happens in books and movies. But the math of time travel doesaffect the things we use every day. For example, we use GPS satellites to help us figure out how to get to new places. (Check out our video about how GPS satellites work.) NASA s...
Yes, time travel is indeed a real thing. But it's not quite what you've probably seen in the movies. Under certain conditions, it is possible to experience time passing at a different rate than 1 second per second. And there are important reasons why we need to understand this real-world form of time travel.

Nov 25, 2004 · The topic of time machines is the subject of a sizable and growing physics literature, some of which has filtered down to popular and semi-popular presentations. [ 1] The issues raised by this topic are largely oblique, if not orthogonal, to those treated in the philosophical literature on time travel. [ 2]
Jul 11, 2018 · Albert Einstein thought the three dimensions of space were linked to time - which serves as a fourth dimension. He called this system space-time, and it's the model of the Universe that we use...

DETAIL: The Time Machine, H. G. Wells’s first novel, is a “scientific romance” that inverts the nineteenth-century belief in evolution as progress. The story follows a Victorian scientist, who claims that he has invented a device that enables him to travel through time, and has visited the future, arriving in the year 802,701 in what had ...
