      It is possible in theory, but I think it involves stuff with black holes which might make the whole process difficult. I think it would be great if it did and I would love to be able to travel into the past to see what things were like and maybe clear up some questions that people have to this day!

      I think the answer is yes, but I don’t think humans are clever enough to achieve it, although I hope I’m wrong!

      I’ve heard people say that it shouldn’t be possible for us to travel back in time because if we could, then surely we already have because people would have travelled into what is the past now. If this confuses you, don’t worry I struggle to get my head around it to0. Anyway those people seem to think that we might only be able to travel into the future. (As we are all the time as the future becomes the present :p )
