      Yes, We already travel around the world and can start in one day and end up in the hour before, despite having travelled for over 8 hours!

      Honestly I think it is unlikely.

      Maybe through wormholes!

      There are several theorise as to how time travel might be possible but I think they deal with quantum physics and so are entirely beyond my basic comprehension. Why don’t you read up about them and come back to let us know what you learned?

      At the moment, no, but I hope it is in the future! Or the past…?

      Well it depends by how much….we can effectively ‘turn back time’ in mature cells by reprogramming them back into stem cells. And certain things can reset the cellular clock that exists in each of your cells – we call this a ‘phase shift’.

      We’re all going forward in time every day so sort of. The question of whether we can jump forward and backwards in time…probably not although would be pretty cool (although could case loads of problems as happened in the film Back to the Future)
