A Wrinkle in TIme Travel?

Time travel of any sort is a long way off, if it can be done at all. Still, it's intriguing to read that theoretical physicist Amos Ori at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology thinks he's found a way to do it that just might, eventually, be practical. To vastly oversimplify: If space-time could be curved into a donut-shaped hole by extremely strong gravity fields, one could create a situation where time becomes a closed loop, and you can travel back in it. It will be generations before humanity masters such ability to manipulate gravity, and there's no way to be sure we ever will. This concept does explain why, if time travel is possible, we have yet to meet a tourist from the future. The theorized machine will not let you travel back into the time before the machine was created.

Great blog I really liked it. I have also created a lens in same niche. This is my first time, hope u guys like it. Here’s a brief intro Wrinkles are a natural thing in life. Research shows that anyone older than 25 years old can experience wrinkles although this does not mean that you will have them once you reach 25. Wrinkles are mainly the results of our personal lifestyle and they could also be caused by other factors such as being exposed to the sun or the cold for long periods of time. http://www.squidoo.com/Anti-Wrinkle-Face-Cream/
