Is Time Travel In Our Future

After the series of sad stories in the news last week, I was happy to find a story with a little more hopeful outlook on the future. It is a story about a new theory concerning the potential for time travel, and while it may be fantasy or highly unlikely, it is interesting nontheless.

A new concept for a time machine could possibly enable distant future generations to travel into the past, research now suggests. Unlike past ideas for time machines, this new concept does not require exotic, theoretical forms of matter. Still, this new idea requires technology far more advanced than anything existing today, and major questions remain as to whether any time machine would ever prove stable enough to enable actual travel back in time.

The story has a few other links at the bottom of the page for more information about time travel and why it may or may not be possible.
