I do think that's what's implied, yeah.p123 wrote:That's why for this situation I think it's best to just take the manga implications as is... It's implied that Goku used IT to beat Freeza in Trunks timeline, why not just take it. Easiest way. The hypotheticals are fun, but the likelihood of this being true is very high, I mean the author hints at this being the answer does he not.
Olivier might not be with me on this one, but I'm kind of okay with this... If it's what the author had in mind, then that's that, really. I'm just saying that it doesn't really make sense, but that's Dragon Ball for you.And Trunks does imply perhaps that Cell arriving here is what has changed the timeline, although we may disagree with the logics behind it, it is what the author implys is it not, since he has a character suggests this approach and not one of our theories I would find what Trunks is suggesting to be the most likely in the manga...
Through the Wormhole? I've never seen it, but that stars Morgan Freeman and sounds right.Anyway, back to the fun stuff. I liked the stuff they did on the time travel to the past on the Morgan Freeman science show. What's that called again...
That sounds more or less right.I like the POV that traveling to the past would be an impossibility. Something that has happened has happened, it's time has come and gone already. Even though time isn't a real thing as well. The issue with time is perhaps the most interesting. Something of the sort as the two varying perspectives of someone who is going through a black hole while the other is observing from a distance... The one going through the black hole would feel the immediate feel of gravity and disappear/die rather quickly... Meanwhile, the observer would watch the person falling into the black hole for an eternity, the person would never fall in or it would take a ridicolously long time due to the effects gravity has on light and yea the rest of the stuff was pretty much beyond me. Or at least beyond my recollection...
I'm not sure about the thing about Earth squishing up, and the important thing to remember is that gravity and velocity can't affect how you personally experience time. A tick on your clock will always be the same for you, but you may see other distant clocks moving at different speeds. The real reason (or one of the real reasons) time sometimes seems to take longer for you is that the human brain measures time using interesting events it experiences; if you go hours without doing anything, time seems to drag.Traveling to the future on the other hand, is totally possible. Something of the sort that we actually do that on a day to day basis. The earth seems to squish up at times throughout the day and this change in gravity alters how time is perceived. Which could help explain why sometimes 2 or 4 minutes seems to go so fast and why at other times goes so slow...But anyway, if you travel around the Earth just outside the atmosphere and hit certain speeds in the spaceship the time on your body would be less than the time for someone on Earth.. Which is amazing stuff...
It is true that time moves at different rates in different parts of the universe, though. Gravity causes a time dilation, so clocks at low altitudes (closer to the center of the Earth) will tick slower than clocks at a high altitude. It's a very minor difference in the case of Earth, but you can at least imagine a scenario where you have a person living at a high altitude and their identical twin living at a low altitude, leading to the low altitude twin aging ever so slightly slower. Similarly, a person who travels close to the speed of light will end up younger than their twin at home who didn't, even though as far as both of them are concerned, time was moving normally. It's similar to the difference in time experienced by someone inside the Room of Spirit and Time and someone outside it, if you think about it.
That was me trying to make this relevant to Dragon Ball...
There are tons of theories, but it's generally thought to be impossible. Like you said before, the past has already happened. If time travel to the past is possible, Dragon Ball's approach (similar to the many-worlds interpretation in quantum physics) is actually the one that would make the most sense, at least as far as we as humans can imagine it.On the time travel past, another option was creating a huge pole throughout the universe that had something that can wing you inside the loop of time. Can't really go into detail here it was a while back, but they said it was technically possible judged by their approach, but the pole would have to be as big as the universe, which would be an impossibility..
I recommend another similar one called Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking.Was some amazing stuff...
