Hello...Past. I\'m the Future.
Hello.
My name is Astor. I'm new at this, and by THIS, I mean typing. I've read many of the claims on this site by so called "Time Travelers." These people are imposters. I've travelled to the past for one reason, to learn from our mistakes. You see, I am a student at the University of
Wisconsin-Madison. I've come here from the year 2056 to write a paper on the greatest mistakes of the 21st century. One of the things I was curious about was the so-called "world wide web" or internet. I'm not sure what it's called now, but we have something close to your "www" called NfoTeK. You're wondering why I'm posting this on your website, well, I've been here for about 2 1/2 years. I haven't said anyting to anyone about my situation, because I'm not supposed to. But I think I'm going to anyway. During the 20's the Lunar Space Station was completed and people began to colonize the moon. Soon after we began to build the Earth-Moon transit system. In 2035 the US and Japanese governments began constucting a gaint ring (or hollow tube) in orbit around the moon. This tube called "HyperLink" is the key to Time Travel. How does it work you ask? Well, I really don't know the tech stuff behind it, because, well I'm just a college student not a scientist. But, I can tell you how I got here using it. In the late 40's it was commercialized by the world's upperclass and became available to the public...for the right price at least. My last days in 2056 was pretty nerve racking (I think that's the term you use.) I was issued a class III pass to try the HyperLink and was very excited. The day I was set to go, we (yes, there are more of us here) had to take off to the port terminal. Which is a station where people board the shuttle. The Shuttle is inside the tube (similar to a roller coaster) and takes about 15 minutes to arrive at the destanation. Once your belted in the shuttle takes orbit and travels very fast (time dilation)inside this tube. Once the speed has been reached everything slows for only a second and the shuttle is off. Heading towards Earth you don't even realize that it' 20 years later or 50 years earlier...whatever you've chosen. For example, Now in the year 2006 your spacecrafts that orbit earth travel at more than 17,000 miles/hr. If they were to stay in orbit for a year they would have jumped 5 mins. into the future.(time dilation)If your shuttles could travel 4,000 times faster you could leap 60,000 years into the future. In the present your fastest ship can only travel 25 miles/sec. nowhere near as fast as needed. The sound barrier was broken more than 100 years ago (or about 50 years ago from now.) All you need to do now is break the light barrier. If you travel faster than the speed of light you will tarvel backwards in time. In other words, imagine traveling as fast as a speeding bullet. As you accelerate to catch up with the bullet, time dilation will begin to occur. But when you reach the same speed as the bullet it would seem to stop in mid air, because time is flowing at the same rate for the bullet and us. Once you overtake the speed of light time begins to flow backwards. 186,000 miles/sec. is the speed needed to break the light barrier. OK, this is enough for today. If anyone needs more info, I'll check back in a couple days. -Astor Victor III
