The current understanding of time variations, of which there are many, tends to lean towards travelling fast. A perfect example is if you travel at very high speed through space, then time for you will slow down while those on Earth will continue at normal time speed.
Therefore your high speed journey may take only a few days for you, but upon returning to Earth, time has passed for the rest of us by years. The thing is - how true is even that? If you could travel through time would you be moving physically fast or slow? Let’s take a closer look at this subject through the eyes of a time traveller. So there you are standing in the middle of a big city with hundreds of people walking past you and people working on different things also. You start to move forward in time, into the future, and as you do so you see people walking past at very, very high speed. You see workmen knocking down a building and building a new one also at very, very high speed. You are travelling through time into the future so you will be seeing those events take place before your very eyes as you time travel past them into the future. But how can that be? You are not moving through physical space from point ‘A’ to point ‘B’, you are totally standing still. Everyone else is moving very, very fast, not you. A perfect example to see visually would be to go and watch the film called .. >The Time Machine< The original and best version from 1960 take note. Now we come to the mind-bending best bit to think about. What if you are moving at normal speed and time? That woman that you just walked past is the time traveller. She can see you through her time travelling eyes moving very fast but can you see her? Did she vanish into thin air the moment she started to travel into the future or is she still standing there, even though not physically moving, but only travelling into the future? For sure she must be gone by now as the moment she vanished she was maybe many years in the future. If we are to believe what the movies show us then it is not a simple case of travelling into the future, as shown in the film The Time Machine, but more a case of jumping into the future and bypassing everything in between? Maybe you don’t need to travel fast, physically, as some think is the case, like high speed space travel for example, maybe no speed at all is needed to travel forward through time? Maybe, just maybe you need to slow down, or make your time slow down, while others speed up and move into the future for you?
