Time travel is the lovechild of an unlikely couple: H. G. Wells and Albert Einstein. Writer and scientist together inspired generations in the conviction that somehow, somewhere, time travel is possible.
And while it remains the myth of movies in which people drive glowing Deloreans in the 1950's or right the wrongs of the past. it's also a topic of earnest research and endless conjecture for the world's physicists. Could we truly zoom ahead of the clock, or back? If so, what would we find?
Time travel in scientific thought is the realm of wormholes, cosmic strings, twists in space, theories that could lead to revelations about the origins of the universe. It's a realm in which Einstein's theories are pushed and prodded and pondered from the smallest particle to the largest black hole. (Hosted by Dick Gordon)
