Makes me think of the 'twin paradox'

...Twin paradox, an apparent anomaly that arises from the treatment of time in German-born physicist Albert Einstein's theory of special relativity. ... According to relativity, time runs more slowly on her spacecraft than it does on Earth; therefore, when she returns to Earth, she will be younger than her Earth-bound sister.

In theory my idea just might work.

Or the right kind depending on your perspective.

Holy Sh!t...Bo does Know everything.

yah, but can he dance?

we will achieve time travel when we die, but where we are going, has no time.

I like to think I can but I have two left feet

That’s very philosophical

I hate to break it to you but I have been working on this for years. Some of my best work involves slingshots. Still a few kinks to iron out but it should be ready to go…any minute now.

I think I can help Bo....for the slingshot, I propose they use the same type of plastic they use for utensils at KFC....

 

....absolutely unbreakable....

I was actually talking to an astrophysicist about this today and he was saying that we'd be limited by the speed of sound in rubber. As the the rubber contracts when we pull the slingshot back we get a wave, but this wave only goes as fast as the sound travels through rubber. That is nowhere near the speed to reach orbital velocity let alone dilate time. He suggested that using magnets to shoot you up might work. The magnets can accelerate you like a monorail, he compared it to a railgun.

Hmmm...Bo Knows...but I don't.

It would be so extremely large, it would need to be built in space, and while you can accelerate safely to the speed of light; in tiny speed increments; the issue is how do you stop or slow down?

 The time period you were trying to go back to could be massively overshot, as you wait, and wait, and wait, to de accelerate.

maybe you've already done this, and now we're just waiting.

i'll meet you, sometimes in the future.

It's obviously impossible it's just a theory

Now if I can only get back the 1 minute of time I spent reading and trying to understand the original post. I kid!
