Many films, movies or programs that shows scenes of time traveling. Time traveling is still a fiction but if there is some way we could time travel..will you grab it. Go back to the places you want anytime. Go back in time where civilization isn't being develop. I've created this discussion but i don't agree with it. Because if someway we are able to go to the past, we might change something in the future. Like the butterfly effect. It will take so much risk to time travel. Maybe we could time travel but we cannot touch things and we are invisible. We can't change anything. Though we may see the pasts,truths,revelations,and other answers to the questions about the past. What do you think about it?

The theoretical nature of time travel is a plausible one; however, it loses its potential when you start to analyse it on a practical level. Let's just say that I've invented a time machine, for example. My journey into the past somehow results in my parents never having met - think 'Back to the Future' - so I'm consequently never born. If I'm never born, the time machine is never invented; which means that I can't go back in time, my parents do actually meet, and I - once again - exist. That's quite a paradox. Time travelling is an absolutely fascinating notion. If I could I would definitely utilise it. Imagine being able to go back in time and personally witness some of the most epic historical events. It would be fun; but, alas, it would nonetheless be dangerous. Imagine, for example, the huge change that would result just by stopping the Titanic's maiden voyage. It looks like we'll have to rely on text books if we want to journey into the past. And that's how it should be.
