Without knowing the exact moment each of the various elements arrived the timetable for the insertion of the British/Canadian para pathfinders and glider landings were the same – 0020 DBST (http://www.6juin1944.com/assaut/aeropgb/en_page.php?page=para)
The first element of 101st US Airborne Division pathfinders was also timed to drop at 0021 DBST, with others following at 0025, 0027 and 0030 DBST (http://www.6juin1944.com/assaut/aeropus/en_page.php?page=para). The 82nd US Airborne Division pathfinders followed about an hour later.
But the point is they do know exactly when D Company went in to action,
00.16 when Howards watch stopped, if the 101st were timed for 0021 you can bet thats the time they dropped as it was all timed to the second

Nasa are saying it’s about the size of Pluto and great deal farther away, seeing as pluto has been reclassified as a dwarf planet I would not say it was vast either. So has it been classed as a Planet?

…and to get yourself (and enough food, air and water) up to 50% of light-speed and then to stop, turn round, and get back to earth you’d only need the entire GDP produced by every country on Earth…..ever! :rolleyes:
This is proven science, as for food for the trip, have you never seen star trek
tea earl grey pleaseI’d try suspended animation. It’s got to be easier…..but that’s only slowing time (for yourself), not time-travel! 😀
Is there a difference, if you build a time machine to go to the future does it disappear or does it just sit there for say 20 years while the world goes speeding by, but to you it would be instantaneous:D

light
The speed of light is about 186.282.00 thousand miles per/sec in a vacuum,
you don’t need to exceed the speed of light to time travel, all the apollo astronauts aged less than people back on earth as they went to the moon (only by millionths of a second) it’s know as time dilation the faster you travel
the less you age compared to someone standing still. Mass also has an effect
on time, all the worlds gps systems have to take in to account time dilation,
the time on the surface of the earth is not same as the satellites in orbit, so they have to be altered daily or your sat/nav would be yards out.
Traveling at 50% light speed for even a few years (say 4) when you got back to earth probably hundreds of years have past, but your only 4 years older.:D

Save some spare Victor Rolls Royce Conways! :rolleyes:
I tend to agree completely with what SH says. Looking whistfully over your shoulder achieves little, I feel.
But if somebody invented a time machine how long do you think the queue would be for people wanting to go back and change things.
