theoretically it is impossible to travel thro time.yet if u move at the speed of light time is stopped and u do not age.or near the speed of light time is slowed down.so someone could travel at the speed of light for hundreds of years without aging and return to earth millions of years later.say u were traveling near the speed of light every 10 minutes is 1 year on earth so if u were to travel for 2 hours u would have gone 12 years into the future..so its possible to travel only to the future if one could move at or near the speed of light?

correct, but i dont think it's because you dont age. i think you just age at a different rate due to a different degree of gravity. but i could be wrong.

The faster you move through space, the slower you move through time. If one were to hit the speed of light, every event would occur in no time for you, thus ending the universe, from your perspective. Of course, with no universe, you'd not be here either. So, I guess if someone could come up with the energy needed for such a feat (infinite energy) and build a craft which could withstand the light speed barrage of particles on said craft (also virtually impossible) one could accomplish instant suicide. Wonderful, eh?
However, there is, theoretically, a possible way to travel through time/space anywhere you wanted to. All it requires is some way to store/use exotic matter formed from negative energy. Such matter is, once again, theoretically possible, but it would collapse normal matter (not at all like antimatter) creating a net energy of 0. With such a supply of exotic matter, one could keep stable for a decent enough period of time a functional "wormhole" through spacetime. There's no telling where/when the wormhole would send you, however, unless you open it enough to take a look.

Yes it is possible to travel forward & backward in time.
I don't feel like writing a whole lot on how this is possible right now, but I will say this:
With God all things are possible. God created us in his own image.
Just because some of us don't know or haven't figured out how to do it yet doesn't mean its impossible.
Remember people used to think the world was flat and the earth was the center of the universe. Imagine what the future races of mankind would think of our knowledge now.

No. Theoretically it is possible to travel through time. There's more than one theoretically sound idea for how to travel to different points in time. However all possible ways are far beyond any technology we have now. It could be that it is technically impossible to travel through time (due to energy requirements, mostly) but it is possible in theory.
so its possible to travel only to the future if one could move at or near the speed of light?
Yes. Moving at near-light velocities will let you "travel" into the future, but only into the future - you can't go backwards.

Hehe, yes and stopping the universe collapsing into your infinite mass, or do you want to be the next big bang ?

now say if one were to travel back in time would this mean that there are infinite reality's and a wormhole could combine 2 reality's and you could travel from one to another?what if one were to change the past and he was never born then he couldnt have gone back in the past and it wouldnt have happened? would that be the way the universe balances itself

If time travel was ever something we could ever accomplsih, someone/thing would have come back and let us know already

I don't remember who said it, but I remember reading something long ago saying that one, to sucessfully accomplish this, would need to travel through space and time. Because if one were to simply travel forward/backward X many years (this is assuming they have the technology), chances are you would end up in the middle of nowhere in space; of course due to the orbit of the earth, possibilities of something interrupting it's orbit, the positioning of the galaxies, etc.

They say you can travel in time easy when you get mastered obe you imagine then a field in middle off Field is house with no windows you step into house there's a comfortable chair with remote control and big screen you sit in chair turn on tv and pick date on remote and you wait for pictures in screen ^^
