Many physicists believe that time travel is possible, problem none has made time travel yet is because it'll require 3 times the power that is produced on Earth.
So lets say time travel IS possible and very real, what will happen?
After seeing movies such as "Back to the future" (I believe this was the English name...) etc' I've always been puzzled about it.
There's the option that if you time traveled then you 1 second BEFORE will time travel as well and you 1.1 seconds before you, making quite a nasty problem that everyone will time travel to the exact same time, making it that an infinite number of YOU will time travel at seemingly the same time making the entire world collapse because of the unexpected mass or other some such astronomical problems.
Or maybe because you time traveled you changed the entire history just by you being there, making it unnecessary for you to time travel again (or impossible)
I know it's all highly theoretical and most probably not even possible beyond theory but it always boggles my mind at what the hell happens.
So, fire away!
