Steemit Engagement Challenge / S19W6 - Time Travel Challenge
I once watched a movie about the timeline when I was still a child, I'm sorry I couldn't recall the title of the movie, but the main character in the movie was given a chance to right all his wrongs on his wedding day, each time he doesn't get anything right he will be taken on a timeline to restart again until he gets it right and what fascinated me is that all this happened and the wedding still holds at the time it was scheduled.
The concept of time travel is fascinating and has captured the imaginations of many others just like me for generations. Honestly, the idea of traveling backward or forward in time is both thrilling and terrifying. Well, I'm not sure if this can exist in reality, though we are living in the technological era, I can't tell if we have the technology to make it a reality in the form of a time machine.
A time machine is a device that allows a person to travel through time, either to the past or the future. Time machines are popular in science fiction literature and movies, I got to know them through movies but the concept is based on real scientific principles.
Sometimes I used to wish, I could turn back the hand of time so that I could right the wrong, but it's just impossible. So the fundamental reason behind a time machine is to create a closed time-like curve, which is a path through spacetime that returns to the same point in both space and time. This means I can travel on this path and arrive back at my starting point at an earlier or later point in time than I left.
Well today I will discuss some essential features that could be necessary for the machine to work. If at all is possible to create one. |

1) Power source: it should have a large amount of energy that will help it to manipulate the fabric of space-time. The energy could be taken from various sources like exotic matter, nuclear fusion, or antimatter
2) Control panel: there should be a provision for a control panel where the person who wants to travel can input his/her desired destination and period. There should be a screen, buttons and switches, and other intuitive controls.
3) Time displacement mechanism: this should be the heart of the machine, it should be able to create a path through space-time that loops back on itself, this will allow someone to travel through Time.
4) Safety features: as I said before the idea of traveling through time can be terrifying, and the outcome is unpredictable, so there should be safety features to protect the traveler. A shield to protect against radiation should be there and temporal anomalies, medical equipment to monitor the traveler, and fail-safe mechanisms in case of emergency.
5) Navigation system: it should be able to navigate the space with accuracy. So advanced GPS-like tech will be required to pinpoint time and location coordinates with exact precision.
6) Self-sustaining: The time machine shouldn't be faulty during the journey, it should be able to sustain itself, and it should be able to generate and store its energy as well as provide food, water, and other necessities for for the time traveler. Ah is this even possible? Haha 😂
These are some important features I could brainstorm for now, additional features can make the journey more comfortable and enjoyable, maybe an advanced climate control system, if possible, ahh entertainment options that could make a traveler more relaxed, and even a kitchen and bathroom.
In all these, the creation of a time machine is still in the mind, yeah purely theoretical and if you ask me, I will say it will remain this way because it is impossible to manipulate space-time and create a close time-like curve that is stable and safe.
Let's learn to live right and do good all the time, love like never before because one thing we can not do is to turn back the hand of time. For the future, no one can predict it except for the Almighty God, We should learn to trust in God and always learn from our mistakes never repeat them, and forgive freely! This will make us happy not living in regrets, hoping to go back to the past to correct our mistakes Because for now possibilities of traveling through time exist only in dreams and imagination!
