Dear Fellow Science Researchers,
After much thought and research I have come up with an idea that might lead to the invention of time travel. Allow me to begin by explaining how I believe your speed relative to the speed of light changes the way you move through time. I believe that anything that is moving slower than the speed of light is moving forward through time. Anything that is moving at the speed of light is completely frozen in time. Anything moving faster than the speed of light is moving backwards in time.
I do not know how anyone will develop a way to move faster than light. That is not my specific category of research. I hope another scientist will solve that problem someday. Anyway, I suppose an easy way to demonstrate what I am saying is thinking about light itself.
Imagine that you are in a space craft that is capable of moving faster than light. The space craft has an extremely powerful telescope. You are facing towards Earth, and the space craft is moving backwards. Therefore, the distance between yourself and Earth is increasing. The space craft is currently moving slower than the speed of light. The Earth is spinning counter-clockwise, and you can see time is moving forward. Now, you increase the space craft's speed to match the speed of light. You will be traveling at the same speed as the light you see from Earth. Therefore, the Earth will appear to be perfectly still. Time on Earth would have appeared to have stopped.
Now, continue to increase your speed until you are moving faster than the speed of light. I predict that the Earth will appear to start spinning in the opposite direction. When looking at Earth, you will see time begin to reverse. People will be walking backwards, and you will even see dead people living their lives again.
My biggest challenge is finding a way to use this for real matter, and not just light. As a result, you can travel backwards in time, and go back to Earth in an earlier time. To do this, I would need to find a way to make the space craft return to Earth without going forwards again. I need to find a shortcut through space itself. If wormholes were real, that could be a possible solution.
