Reply to space themed room by abslte23

So in my current house, the fan in the bedroom has a light painted to look like the Earth. There's also those glow in the dark stars on the ceiling, though if you're feeling adventurous, I bet it wouldn't be too hard to put some LED stars in the ceiling.

When I was growing up I had some framed pictures from Cassini in mine. Now I'm an engineer in the space sector, so I'd say that worked out.

In short term only. What most people know of time travel is based on Hollywood physics...

Time is a construct for the human mind. It's reality is based on how conscious you are, not how far you travel.

There is no spoon, Neo...

I buy the multiversal time travel theory. In which case kind of. You can travel to other realities like ours that progress at different rates so you can effectively view other times, but anything you do there won't affect ours.

Technology has advanced incredibly quickly, however I don't think we're at a point where we can manipulate physics to our will within any of our lifetimes. The very fact that events such as the Holocaust haven't been prevented gives me reason to believe we will never find a means of time traveling into the past. You know what humanity is like, SOMEONE would have killed Hitler in his youth. There would likely also be very strict policies on who could use it and how it could be used so I doubt the general public would ever have access to it. Maybe time travel into the future could become a possibility though, assuming we don't wipe ourselves out anytime soon. ♡
