Let's Talk About "Time Travel"

[BIAD]

The camera does not have to move, because the rest of the universe does. As an oversimplified example, sending the camera 19 hours into the future could cause it to materialize in BIAD's shed and begin recording as the UK heaves into the place occupied by Area 51 19 hours before...

Gawd, I hope they don't do that!

It's only happened twice and the position of the equipment for time-viewing ensured that whichever well-funded
group were snooping in BIAD's shed, they got an eyeful of the Man-Girl's own style of 'equipment'!

...........................

And that's one of the main problems when it comes to discussing time travel, the perception that there is some form
of movement. It's that darn linear concept that tricks us into believing that we 'go' somewhere else and that a past or
future event is in another place.
It would just be in another time.

It's true that we currently don't know whether a particle or an actual human being will be able to roam around in another
timeline other than their own, but at the moment it's guessed that we'd have to remain in this current time and be only
able to observe via reflection the possible developments in any timeline.

The other obstacle is that if we could choose a different time and find our viewing blocked by a building being erected
or a tree growing right in the position we'd be observing, how would we know -or even be able to, situate our time-travel
device in a suitable place!

Still staying with the John Titor suggestion, that it's doubtful one can return to his-or-her exact timeline, the idea of what
is a definite truth would have to reevaluated. Taking in all the subtle variances of these countless timelines, what we believed
happened in -let's say the Second World War, individual truths would be slightly-to wildly different to what we accept happened
in our known timeline.

In Quantum physics, experiments have shown that an observer effects outcome and so what effects would occur when we are
able to view the past or future? So it'd be prudent that we know the rules before we embark on this exploration. I think that when
we get to grips with what is the true reality of the universe -as the faster-than-light actions of neutrinos' abilities have shown us,
then we may be able to master time travel and our ramifications on these timelines.

However as of writing, there's no evidence to suggest that a DeLorean isn't still the best mode of time-trekking!
