  • Come on, Steve-o. The present time traveling record holder is Russian Cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev who after spending 803 days in orbit, travelled 0.02 seconds into his own future. Here's the formula thanks to Albert Einstein.

    t = sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)

    Of course, integration or at least summation over wall time would probably be necessary. Note that the second law of thermodynamic prevents travel into the past. The equation behaves poorly for negative values anyway.

    • I was going to point out Steve's error on this matter too (his IQ must be nowhere near 154 as he claims).

    • My apologies, I phrased it poorly. What I meant was that any time travel experienced by humans as of today is too short to make a noticeable impact on one's life.
