Ronald Mallett is working on a time machine using light. It will only be able to send and receive photons, but that's still pretty awesome.

That is pretty cool. I've always wanted to meet a photon from the future.

Dig it...at first I thought it was quantum entanglement, but this seems like a fairly novel idea. We're getting closer and closer to a time machine...I wouldn't be too surprised to see someone from the future walking down the street one day.

I would, since odds are someone isn't going to land in our dimension, but a parallel one.

You really think so? How's that?
If there's anything to string theory (and if I understand it correctly, which is a BIIIG if), then the other dimensions are only accessible by gravitons (theoretically). Do you mean a parallel universe?

Going to a parallel universe would be one HELLA trip man! And there would be so many questions raised...for instance...would someone from that universe be trying to go into ours at the same time ours is trying to go to theirs? What type of physics would exist there, etc etc ad nauseum!

At the moment I think time travel into the past is unlikely.
In the experiment they talk about, where the atomic clocks are used, it proves that time is relative (suspected to mass and gravity though this is not completely understood).
The clock travels into the future, as it is younger than its aged counter-part on Earth, but it stays within our universe!
I'm not saying infinate universes or a parrellel universe are impossible. Just that firstly we must understand this gravity/movement/time relationship that acts within our universe then we may start to get a better understanding/picture of time.
Technically, when you get in a car, you are time travelling! Your movement alone is affecting time and space! If you can travel or vibrate, possibly, fast enough then the people around you will age faster than you in your time and space.
At the moment, all we really know, is that the faster you travel the slower you will age compared to matter not traveling as fast. Its complex.

One cosmonaut has traveled into the future by 1/4 of a second from spending 2 years in the ISS traveling at 16,000 MPH.

thats my biggest problem, if we would see people from the future walking around soon, why not already
it doesn't make sense, if it is even possible at all, why have they not been able to make it back to the time we are in right now
i can only think of 2 reasons, one that it will be increadibly far down the road and it will take too much energy and money to power a machine to transport one back in time that far, which means that we will never get to experience it (other than basic flight and moving which changes our time)in our life times, or it is just not possible
then again they could be here and we just dont know it and they dont wana mess up anything so they try to keep their existence hushhush

My thoughts exactly...I wouldn't be surprised if they were here among us.

Indeed...time is a curious thing. Dali thought it was a very subjective measurement, hence all his images of melting clocks.
