Could humans ever travel into the future? Is traveling into the past physically possible? And what would the consequences be for causality and the nature of reality?Drawing on historical accounts, scientific discoveries, physics, and modern research, this immersive journey separates genuine scientific possibilities from science fiction and popular myths.Narrated with a calm, human voice, this episode is perfect for listeners interested in science, physics, philosophy, history, space, technology, relaxation, or listening before sleep.
