This justification is far from a conclusive theory... Relate that argument to religion. Seems to me from what I've seen about you around here, you are a person of faith. If I were to say there's no such thing as God because if there was, we'd have proof that he visited us, we'll how does that disprove anything?

Just because we don't know that someone from the future has visited us, we can't say it's never happened. And even if it hasn't happened, it doesn't prove that at some future point it won't happen. Perhaps it's invented in 3224, and someone came back to 2542 but not before, how would we know?

Maybe to people that far in the future there's just no need to come back here. Maybe it's possible but our world is destroyed, or the rapture comes or whatever, before anyone figures it out. Clearly what we do now is that time travel is possible because we are all as we speak travelling through time forward.

Einstien theorized that time slows down the faster you move, and this has been proven with atomic clocks and fast moving centrifuges. I remember doing a paper where we talked about wormholes, where it's theorized that a person could enter one end and come out the other in a different part of the universe (except that there is something in the center called a singularity that contains infinite gravity and would rip anything apart that tried to squeeze through it). If the problem of the singularity could be addressed, and one could find a way to accellerate one end of the wormhole to the speed of light so that time on the other end would stand still, let that run for 10,000 years, then in 10,000 years have someone from the other end enter the wormhole, they'd emerge in the present time, having travelled back in time 10,000 years...this is already theoretically possible.It's also speculated that alternately nothing can travel faster than light, or it is possible, and doing so would result in reverse time travel, hard to say.

But to answer the question, just because we have no evidence of something doesn't mean it doesn't exist or isn't possible to exist. Simply put, we could prove something, but we can't really disprove anything, because there's infinite possibilities and it's always possible there is something we don't know or understand which makes a different way of doing something possible. Just because we haven't thought of how it works, doesn't mean it's not possible, but even if it is impossible, the fact that we have no evidence of it having happened doesn't rule it out from our perspective.

They may have already. They may be here now. You may be one, I may be (cue doo-doo-doo spooky music).

Ethical time-travellers would try to not be noticed. I would bet that they would pose as tourists from a very foreign country - Albania? Mongolia?

And do some serious home-work before hand to try and stand out as little as possible. Though I can see that they might have trouble if they source their ideas poorly. For instance, dressing yourself based on a music video is going to raise eyebrows in wintertime Nome.

There's a great short story by Garry Kilworth, "Let's Go To Golgotha! " in which time-travelling tourists attend the Crucifixion - and what their efforts to not stand out lead to .... Sources: Me annecm's Recommendations Let's Go to Golgotha Used from: $32.75 .

Well, the discussion on time travel is usually about the future - since that is where we expect to find the technology Stephen Hawking once suggested that the absence of tourists from the future constitutes an argument against the existence of time travel—a variant of the Fermi paradox. So, if time travelers do come from the future, they are able to remain unidentified, or they do not exist. That is the most common form of the discussion.

I tend to favor a multi-time line universe where you can change the past but only move into a parallel world where things are different. But the world where you did not change events stays the same. If this is true there are close to an infinite number of universes and the idea of Occam's Razor has been left behind.

Occam's razor (sometimes spelled Ockham's razor) is a principle attributed to the 14th-century English logician and Franciscan friar William of Ockham. The principle states that the explanation of any phenomenon should make as few assumptions as possible, eliminating, or "shaving off," those that make no difference in the observable predictions of the explanatory hypothesis or theory. The principle is often expressed in Latin as the lex parsimoniae ("law of parsimony" or "law of succinctness").

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occams_razor I am happy to ignore Occam when he gets in the way. Life is not about parsimony for me. But this discussion is mared by the initial question.

Few would expect time travel to be a past invention because the technology available has not been all that able. Had it been framed entirely in the future, it would be more in line with informed discussions on the topic where we expect invention and action to be in the future. That is why we expect the visitors to be from the future.

If you imagine time machine in the past, why not have the visitor also come from the past? That would at least be consistent. Perhaps you are a time traveler and have become disoriented.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
