Actually the speed of light is variable, and it's pretty darn easy to prove.
Infact, light slows down and defracts when it goes through transparent objects, such as glass, plastic, water, thus distorting it.

We perceive time, thanks to that our brain provides us with information around our exterior. We have senses, like sight, and hearing..., and touch. Some snakes have infra-vision, they can see the heat from a short distance.
As we receive all that ammount of information at a fairly good speed, (eg. humans eyes receive light around 30 times per second) we are able to determine its CHANGE.. but, silly humans, start defining time as it was magic.
A great discovery though, is that time doesnt depend on humans, it goes alone on its own. Clocks revealed that.
If we were god, we wouldnt need a clock, we know that, because we know that we arent perfect, thanks to clocks, thanks to photography, thanks to all that we know we arent omnipotent, even as some humans are capable of believing.
Those are the basis to claim that time isnt magic, its just hard to perceive.. but we know that time is mathematicaly constant. Maybe it isnt though, maybe times changes its speed so slightly, that it SEEMS to be constant, but its not.. we cant know for sure.

Chicken you've been watching waaay too much Warner Bros.
Show me the power child,
I'd like to say,
That I'm down on my knees today,
Gives me the butterflies,
Gives me away,
'Til I'm up on my feet again,
I'm feeling outshined.

i think that travelling in time is possible.
If we could travel faster than light, the time would then backwards.
Like if you Lighter that goes on faster than light,
shouldnīt it go on before you put it on?
So if we would have a machine that could go faster than light
(>2 999 999km/s), and a donut shaped tunnel (like they have in fusion plants)
We could travel a circle faster than light.
The only but in my theory is, that trveling in high
speeds, we must remember the g-forces.
If you would try to travel faster than light, it would
cause ge-force, what would be about 15 000 000g`s.
So the travelling in time is possible, but unfortunetly
if you travel in time, you will seperate in atoms.
The travelling time is also possible with blackholes,
because the gravity in blackholes is so big, that even light canīt
escape from it. That would mean that the speed in the blackhole
is greater than light. But we will crash to two problems (again)
1. The gravity: The gravity is again too big for humans to stand
even if you (we prosume that we are talking the normal type of black hole)
would go to the point wich has the lowest level of gravity (the center),
you would still seperate into atoms.
2. Nobody knows what is beyond the black hole.
or there can be theories (if i remember right, einstein wrote something about the circeling of the space)
that the black holes lead to something.
I hope that i didnīt wrote too big message

(I maybe don't know these terms in english, forgive me  )
That IS A PROVEN FACT that time goes slower when the speed increases. It's impossible to travel faster than light. Instad, there is another way to travel trough the time. A "wormhole". Let's move wormhole's another end e.g. 99.99% of speed of light so stays young when the other gets older and older. Then, you go in to wormhole's old end, and when you come out from young end you are in past. Of course it's possible that there isn't wormholes. But black holes perhaps can turn into wormholes if we could drop there somekind of unknown material what has "antipressure". That would remove the event horizon and allow people walk to in. Sounds little unbeliveable doesn't it? However, the sciense IS NOT PROVED that there ISN'T wormholes and unknown material... So it's possible. (until they prove that there isn't that unknown stuff and wormholes )
P.S. happy holidays!

do you mean dark material with term unknownmaterial?
i read a while ago that an italian scientist did
an experiment where he put molekyles moving faster than
light, and the molekyles started the movement before
he even started the machine
(tiede 2000 lehti joku numero missä selitettiin mustanaukon runkomalleja)
so that means that travelling trough time is against our logicks, right?
i havenīt got anything more to say (my brains are overheating)

The problem with traveling back in time is that it creates a huge amount of paradoxes. For example, if you look at the story line for Chrono Trigger, it really makes no sense AT ALL. Same thing goes for the Terminator movies. Traveling forward in time is possible, and can already be done. Some people are freezing themselves, so they can be revived in the future. This IS in fact traveling into the future, and IS actually time travel. So while traveling into the future is possible, traveling into the past might not be.
99 percent chance that the above post is 100 percent correct.

true mrcoffee, stop drinking coffee plz, but true.
INFINITE UNIVERSES:
Think about the posibility of infinite universes.. with all posibilities scattered on all posible universes. That's a big amount of universes.
In some movies, they travel back in time and talk to themselves as a kid.
The only posible explanation to that, is the "time traveler" traveled not to his real past, BUT to another universe, where he is physicaly in the same space as HE as a child, so if he makes any change to himself as a child, he wouldnt really suffer, since he HAS no other choice than to be in another universe, not the real past.
Sometimes I like think silly things, recalling the infinite universes thing I said.
There is 1 universe that I know for sure it doesnt exist: is an universe that recalls what I say... and if I ask to get a wish granted, that universe would grant it for me instantly here in THIS universe. Damn, it's too bad it doesnt work that way.

I think cryogenic freezing brings up an excellent. Mainly because it is near the realms of possibility to do such a thing. We've all seen Futurama right?
If you think about it as not so much a long sleep, rather a long coma. Nothing happens to the soul of the person, they're body remains intact, they still live yet their brain does not function therefore they cannot dream or think or witness the world around them, thus all time is irrelevant. This essentially means this person will not feel the years past by while they are frozen, and wake up maybe feeling a bit out of it, but like not a moment has passed...providing they are revived successfully.
This is essentially time travel. And time travel is not impossible in this regards. But of course there are rules to this. It's all relative, ie only one person that is 'time travelling' will percieve it as been speed up or skipped altogether, others will not, and will live normal boring lives.
And the main point, which I bring up again...YOU CAN'T TRAVEL BACKWARDS.
Time travel should not be considered a directional thing. You can only 'move forwards' in time, by different means. But this again is not actually changing time itself, rather changing the perception of it for an observer, ie changing your perception of time.
These kinds of things actually happen in everyday. Time travel can happen to someone who becomes unconcious and awakes not knowing how long has passed or how they got to the hospital. It's all relative!

What muggus has said with regard to the slowing of time at increased velocities is indeed a measurable fact. However, picture this: one object is static, the other moves at a speed approaching the speed of light. Time for the later object will therefore slow down. Now imagine a wormhole is projected between the two (not as daft an idea as it sounds) -the object that is moving continues to move so time at that end of the worm hole advances more slowly than at the other. Therefore, by going through the static end, you will come out of the other end of the wormhole before you left. That, my friends, is time travel.
Why the hell am I on the computer at 1 in the morning? No, don't answer.
