The Quest for Time Travel

About the show

Professor Ronald Mallett spoke about the feasibility of time travel, overcoming its limitations, and his plans to build a time machine. After the early death of his father, he became obsessed with the idea of creating a time machine so he could go back and see him.

He suggested that gravity can be thought of as a medium rather than a force. Black holes control gravity, and if a person was close enough to one, their experience of hours could represent years back on Earth, he explained. His concept for a time machine centers around the idea that a circulating laser beam can cause a twisting of space and time, looping the past and future together. The early stages of such a machine would just be able to send subatomic particles, he noted.

Mallett announced that Spike Lee will co-write and direct Time Traveler, a feature film based on his memoir, which chronicles his rise from poverty to distinguished scientist. More on the project here.
