Theoretically, traveling to the future is quite possible. Stephen Hawking presented a theory that if an object, a vehicle perhaps, could reach a speed close to the speed of light, time inside the vehicle would actually slow down quite abit, allowing whoever was inside to travel into the future without truly experiencing the amount of time he'd traveled through. Unfortunately, it looks like it would be a one way trip. Traveling backwards in time appears to be quite impossible with our current understanding of physics.

I think that is impossible till now. But who knows, maybe in the near future there would be one person who could be a lot more intelligent than Einstein that can actually invent that type of machine. And if that thing happen I'll definitely be the first to idolize him and would want to acquire that invention. In case that I would have that time travel I would like to use it for good purposes. First I wanted to take a glimpse of the future and try to discover new medicines or inventions that could help during my time. And in case that I wouldn't enjoy my time, I would choose to go back in the past, I mean the time when natural resources were so abundant, people starting to discover new things and when life is still simple. I think these were the best things to do if I had it. Have a great day!
