I would be removing matter from the universe which would probably
result in a black hole in the time I left, and an explosion in the time I entered.
C.S. Lewis also believe something similar. He believe (and I'm seriously glossing over it so I might be missing some details) that all the memories we would ever have, we always had. And that when we experienced deja vu, we were just remembering our previous knowledge of the event occurring.
I also believe in the more rational, "logical" time travel notion that as speed increases, time decreases for those things/objects experiencing it so in essence you'd be traveling forward through time (sort of like the extended life Andrew Wiggins experienced as he traveled from world to world as the Speaker for the Dead). Of course this is just a one way trip so there's no going back and using any knowledge/equipment you picked up for your own advantage. Also, I guess it can be argued that for it to really by called "time travel" the person in question shouldn't just move fast forward through time but rather skip periods altogether.
I dunno. Every one of me exists in his own special place in time. I think that if I took one of those and put it somewhere else it would seriously jack up the universeSee? I still picture it like tracers? like you?re leaving small energy paths everywhere, in all universes, every step. I picture it more fluid like that. Except that there could be infinite things each of you are doing.
I'm all for mental time travelNot me.. I want to travel physically to a place. And have control of it.
TimeSlip was able to travel in time by projecting her mind/psyche into the past or future versions of herself while her mind/psyche of that time period would occupy her body during the present. This method of time traveling would avoid breaking the law of conservation of energy.I can see that ^ But, I can also still see getting enough control over your mental stability? that you could push past constraints, and make your physical body travel also.. but do it in a way that doesn?t break any laws of energy. It would take a level of concentration and calm and discipline that would surpass even Buddhist monks.. so, not many people could achieve it. But, it?s fun to think that it could be done.
Of course this is just a one way tripThat ^ would be a drag. I?m not going to imagine it that way. I?m going to imagine that I develop enough mental superiority to meditate like a monk, then travel through time, and at the same time discover a way to make myself immortal ..and trace anywhere I want to.
For the longest time I thought meeting myself in the future would be impossible
because I thought that if I traveled into the future, I would cease to exist on my present time line.
A few days ago I realized that if I traveled to the future, eventually I would travel back
to my present time meaning I could see myself in the future.
It was quite a revelation for me, seeing that I spend a lot of time thinking about time travel ;D
Whatever the case, this is all theoretical. If you ask me, I think physical time travel is impossible.
If I traveled anywhere in time, I would be removing matter from the universe which would probably
result in a black hole in the time I left, and an explosion in the time I entered.

So any proper time travel coordinates would have to be able to research or predict where the planet had been/would be and move the machine accordingly. Otherwise you travel back 50 years, the planet is probably somewhere else and there you are floating in a vacuum or are being dragged into a black hole or something...Coordinates relative to what? You are thinking in absolute terms. If a time travel device was ever constructed you would probably only be able to return to the point in time and space that it was initially constructed.
One of the things I think gets left out most when discussing time travel situations is the fact that the planet itself is moving through space and time - both in its own orbit and on the arm of the milky way which incorporates it.

but I want
to imagine that it's possible that the best time machine would also be a spaceship and flying car.
Hellz yeah!
