Time Travelling!
Hi,
Imagine that you have been given a time machine from the future. Which time period would you first visit and why? Do you think such an invention is possible in the near future?
Note: If possible, you can even given an idea as to how you think it might function. This is a personal response question, so there are no right or wrong answers.

Re: Time Travelling!
Hi Ganesh,
That’s an interesting choice. I have asked many people this question and not many came up with this answer. I think I would like to travel some 100 years into the future, into the year 2121 CE. I would like to find out what the developments in space technology and the environment of the Earth will be.
I think travelling will be possible in the future, if not the near future. Some scientists already say that Black Holes are potential time machines.
