Time Machine

Recently I saw a theory for designing a Time machine, it convinced me that creating a time machine is not far off in the future.

Let us consider a guy is traveling at half the speed of light and a light is switched on parallel to him. The light must pass him at half the speed of light but it passes him at the same speed of light. This is the relativity theory give by Einstein. He also told that space and time contracts as we reach the speed of light. Many physical laws and constraints prevent any particle with mass from traveling at a speed higher than light. But there is one possibility, a particle around the black hole move at a speed more equal to light. But getting a black hole for a time machine is impossible.

So they came up with another idea. A particle can be made to travel in a loop of light which acts as a prototype of a black hole but the bottom is connected to the top forming a loop. Particle traveling in this machine will pause it's own time but the machine will be moving in time. Hence this particle can be taken out of its loop in the future and the message can be read. Now the reverse will also be possible since it is a loop. Now the achievement here is that, the time travel is possible only within the time in which the machine switched on. A constrain is that only data in the form of particle can be sent but sending a whole human is impossible.

However, making the fourth dimension to alter is a biggest dream of human being. Though humans cant alter their time but can alter time of the objects around itself will be very big breakthrough in human history. With this many miracles can be done, the one i can think of now is that you can destroy the term FATE.....
