She has a doctorate in quantum mechanics and she likes to be spanked. And she keeps looking down at his 1-minute time machine. I need to go to the park more often. |

I enjoyed reading Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time. He believes in time travel. I just googled about time travel and read this section about how he tried to prove that it is real by finding actual time travelers here with us. He set up a party with plenty of food and drink but he only invited time travelers. He made sure that no non-time travelers would attend by posting the invitation only after the party ended. Unfortunately no one came to the party.
If time travel is possible, I would think it is easier if the time difference is a small amount, like a one minute time machine, useful for brushing up our pick up lines.

That one minute time machine short was hilarious! I needed that on this Monday morning. |

There are several large research universities in my area, and I learned very quickly here that at the three biggest, the grad departments (especially in math and sciences) are full of brilliant, lovely single women who outnumber the pool of available heterosexual men in their departments, and often on campus anyway. ...and now I'm kicking myself again for not just staying single instead of settling. Can I get a 4- year time machine? |

X Didn't Amy do that in another weeping angel episode? Not that I recall but then I watch those episodes through slightly closed hands in front of my face so I may have missed it. Brilliant idea, eternaloptimism! |

Must the universe exist?
Let us first assume the universe must exist. Then assume time travel is possible. Then you could go back to the very beginning of time and create a bifurcation and short circuit the Big Bang, rendering the universe nonexistent. But we assumed the universe must exist. Hence we arrive at a very big reductio ad absurdum. So if the universe must exist, time travel is impossible.
Now assume the universe does not have to exist. Then assume time travel is possible. Given that time travel is possible, time must exist, therefore the universe must exist. But we assumed the universe does not have to exist. We arrive at another reductio ad absurdum. So if the universe does not have to exist, time travel is impossible.
Therefore, whether or not the universe must exist, time travel is impossible. Therefore time travel is impossible.
I need a life.

Actually that is only if your assumptions are correct.
Cannot the universe exist and time travel exist but one cannot create a bifurcation to prevent the big bang because if one did then the the universe wouldn't exist therefore the person creating the bifurcation wouldn't exist and the universal law will not allow that happen.
