    OK, you have the choice! even at 03:30.

    Travel back or forwards in time or just venture out into space?

    Me personally? I do not want to meddle in what's happened or what's going to happen. But there is some curiously as to what happens, going on! At the end of the day, what's the worst that can happen? (I know).

    Me personally? I'd travel into space because we are fooked as a species, and me being a single PAYE person, holds no power. We've managed to abuse a planet that's given us life and in the same extent, become a race that is just greed beyond comprehension.

    But the thing is? travelling into space? we'd just end up polluting what ever planet we decide to occupy, but at least we'd have a new start.

    Give it 200 years (if not so much sooner, because of nuclear weapons and human nature being what it is), before this planet we all call home, and eventually end up 6 feet under, becomes a mere blip.

    And btw, for those who believe we are not alone in this universe. Then imagine, if we are unique, special, even to the contrary, a very specific development in the grand scale for the theory on the development in life, how special are we? Millions of planets etc... And we as a single piece of rock, just exist.

    If we're alone in the universe, then realise how extraordinary it is for a planet, such as ours, to be alone, with 7 billion inhabitants? Imagine how unique you are, regardless. Take life on this planet and compare it with our own solar system. Imagine Earth being a grain of sand. Imagine it being on a single scale, even on a "local" scale, we really are a mere speck. Then imagine that mere speck on a Universal scale? That my friends is quite unique, in fact a spectacular achievement? Quite extraordinary in fact.

    That is how Unique we are.

    So? Time travel, or Space Travel?

    Found this the other day, it makes faster than light travel theoretically possible, apparently NASA have already begun working on it:

    I'm building a time machine right now but running low on funding, if a few thousand people could just send me their credit card details.

    If I vanish in a few months then obviously I've traveled to the future.

    Thanking you in advance.

    great scott marty... in the past your mum is randy tart and in the future your kid is a dork

    I'd go back in time and do as much of the following as possible:

    Frame JFK's death on Lester B. Pearson (Canadian PM at the time).
    Prevent the 1967 assassination of Che Guevara.
    Prevent Nikita Kruschev from being expelled from the soviet party

    Then I would come back to my present day and read wikipedia to see how these changes affected history up until now. For no other reason other than I'm bored and have read everything I can on wikipedia :(
