Time is the fourth dimension. If you want to meet me you have to specify X,Y,Z coordinates plus time coordinates. Im not going to stand on the corner of 5th and Main for eternity waiting for you.
since the earth is travelling through space at an incredible speed, if you travel through time and somehow manage to stay attached to the earth, isnt there a time-travel-rate at which you would be travelling faster than light?
Einstein would be very upset with you! c is the limit. Its not just a good idea, its the law!
If you could somehow attach yourself to the earth, then wouldnt you need to exist in all the times between now and the time you were heading to?
If I travel from today back to last year, wouldnt an observer in normal time perceive me as a frozen statue, sitting in my time machine, in the same location, from last year until now?
