    I’d love to spend some time visiting the world of my youth, just to experience again the world before the internet. ThenI’d go back a hundred years to see what the house I live in looked like back then, as well as the neighborhood and town around it, and other places I’m familiar with. And maybe continue stepping back in 50 year increments…

    I’d also love to go back and visit favorite clubs and restaurants that don’t exist anymore.

  • It would depend on the kind of time travel machine it is. Am I physically there, like most fiction or is it just a “time telescope” like the film Payday?

    If it was just remotely viewing, I’d check out a lot more stuff like the meteor that killed the dinosaurs and other stuff I wouldn’t wanna see if it meant putting myself in danger.

    I’d go back to 5 years before the sacking of the Library of Alexandria so I could check out what’s in there before it all goes up in flames. My time travel would also give me the automatic ability to read and understand all of the languages and dialects that were used.

    probably to see that supernova or something was easily visible from earth and there were like tapestries of it & stuff, sounds cool to see & I’m sad I wasn’t alive to see it. I’m not even sure if it was real or not now.

    Watching the whole Artimis mission this year made me think back and imagine how following the Apollo 13 rescue would have been like

    I’m good, I got plenty of historical events at home.

    EDIT nevermind I thought of a good one. I want to go to right before the Permian extinction and check out all the wildlife.

    Not a historical moment, but I would visit my favourite Author and thank him for the books he wrote.

    The actual, living person that was Jesus Christ, performing one of his reported miracles. I’m leaning towards him walking on water or multiplying the bread and fish.

      Wasn’t it all single celled lifeforms then?

      Also it was less of an event and more like million years or so. You’d just stand there in sludge while nothing is happening. Until getting beamed back lol.
