IF THERE WAS TIME TRAVEL, WHAT YEAR WOULD YOU GO TO AND WHY?


According to Wikipedia:

"Time travel is the concept of movement (such as by a human) between certain points in time, analogous to movement between different points in space, typically using a hypothetical device known as a time machine, in the form of a vehicle or of a portal connecting distant points in time. Time travel is a recognized concept in philosophy and fiction, but traveling to an arbitrary point in time has a very limited support in theoretical physics, and usually only in conjunction with quantum mechanics or Einstein–Rosen bridges. In a more narrow sense, one-way time travel into the future via time dilation is a proven phenomenon in relativistic physics, but traveling any significant "distance" requires motion at speeds close to the speed of light, which is not feasible for human travel with current technology."

In the future, who knows, time travel might actually be possible. If it was reality now, when would you go back to or ahead to? I would go ahead to 2516, 500 years ahead. I have always been into gadgets and new technology. When I was younger, my sister and mom and dad and I went shopping. My sister and mom shopped for clothes and I was at the electronic stores. My dad would join me or walk around or sit. The inventions in a 500 year period would be immense, unless by then everything gets wiped out due to what's happening to the environment. I hope that isn't the case.

I would be fascinated by all the changes. Would cars be travelling like in the show The Jetsons? What would TV be like? My guess is more like a movie screen at home as standard. Actually probably no screen would be needed since the images would probably be on the walls. Anyhow, I wish I could see all the advances in science and health. Altering one's genetic makeup to prevent diseases would be fantastic. Who knows what will happen.

What a great answer, Puzzles. If I had kids or grandchildren,, I would have thought the same.

Wonderful answers, Ranger. I wasn't thinking about family. I wish I had. I would have liked to meet my grandmother. I was told she was the warmest and sweetest woman ever. I was thinking in terms of the world as a whole. I also was very close to my grandfather so I wish I had more time to spend with him. Seeing my parents at younger ages, would be something too.
