TimeTravel

The thing is, if we were able to travel through time, wouldn't we know about it at this point.
I understand that they would be hiding themselves, but I'm sure they could have slipped up.

Also, bringing this in from another thread: We would only travel back as far as our 'time' was invented, right? If theoretically a time machine was created, we would only go as far back as we recorded.

Again with the "we named time, thus we created it" dissilusionment? would that mean that your history doesn't even start with the initial creation of your very being, that a child isn't actually a part of "time" or "history" until they are named? then what the hell were they for nine months?

A mistake.

For something to exist in time it must exist in space. You can't exist in space and not exist in time.

I have yet to see a valid argument of when your 'time' started? And who said anything about time being named my point. I'm saying we INVENTED time as it is. What are minutes to anything but us? Nothing.

However relevant this is to time travel however.

Time is universal, a minute here is a minute in Africa and a minute in Africa is a minute on Pluto.

So your life is that meaningless? Might wanna live more. and all I'm saying is alot happened before humanity was even recorded into the anals of time, the earth revolved around the sun and days turned into nights before we were even concieved, all we did was slap a title onto this to make it easier to refer to and communicate with each other, just like how we have named everything known to man

No kidding, a minute is a form of measuring the passing of time created by the humans. It will never change.

Well.
The mass of earth is greater than the mass of pluto and therefore creates a bigger gravitoelectromagnetic field.

So as an observer they tend to have slower time.

We already learned how to timetravel in the future and past. History channel did a episode on it. It would cost billions of dollars to do it.
