[QUOTE="IroncladMarshmallow, post: 90122, member: 5685"] Yes. There's a lot of theory I won't get into here, so I will put it in a simpler, but non-reverse-engineerable context. Suppose traveling forward through time is like skiing down a hill. You can make gentle nudges side to side to guide your direction along the way, but you're always moving downward. To go back in time, or back to the top of the hill in this analogy, you must gain energy to climb back up. That gives you the potential to take a different course down the hill this time, perhaps even pushing over other skiers, thereby altering their timeline. There will always be paths you cannot realistically take, however, just like a skier would be unable to pass through a tree or boulder. Time travel enables many possibilities, but not all of them. Knowing what things can and cannot be changed will prevent frustration. [/QUOTE]
