Dear fache-ga;
Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting
question.
As agreed in the clarification, I will supply with you links
supporting the premise that time travel is possible, without entering
into a discussion resulting in a yes or no answer from me personally.
You will be afforded an opportunity to examine the information I am
directing you to and come to your own conclusion. Having said that,
let us proceed:
A good place to start your research is this:
TIME TRAVEL
http://freespace.virgin.net/steve.preston/Time.html
The people from this site claim to have the mathemamtics of time
travel, and plans (which they will share with you) of how to construct
certain devices needed in order to travel through time. The site also
explains the relativity, chaos and super string theories in laymens
terms. You can examine their mathematical equations and read examples
of that they say are taime travel events that have already occurred.
FUTURE HORIZONS
http://futurehorizons.net/energy/time.htm
This site examines - Alternative Fuels - Anti-gravity - Bionics -
Flying Saucers - Free-Energy - High-Voltage - Hoverboards - Jetpacks -
Lasers - Lightsabers - New-Age Medicine - Psionics - Pyrotechnics -
Space-Age Weapons - Strange Science - Surveillance - Time Travel -
Ufos Ultrasonics, and offers a newsletter. You can also purchase
plans, research and equipment that they say is helpful if you plan to
travel through time. Obviously, buyer beware is the rule here, if
you do manage to go back in time and their device doesnt seem to be
helping you to find your way back, youll have some serious issues I
would imagine, and of course, no real way to address them with the
manufacturer.

CARL SAGAN ON TIME TRAVEL
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/time/sagan.html
Watch a video or read the transcript of an interview with Carl Sagan
shortly before his death, in which he discusses what he know and what
he believes we will learn about the possibility of time travel.
Also this article by NOVA ONLINE in which Clifford Pickover says,
Today, we know that time travel need not be confined to myths,
science fiction, Hollywood movies, or even speculation by theoretical
physicists. Time travel is possible.

SCIENTISTS EXPLAIN WHY TIME TRAVEL IS POSSIBLE
http://abcnews.go.com/sections/scitech/DailyNews/timemachine020306.html
I don't mind telling you the story," the Time Traveler says to his
friends. "But I can't argue
Most of it will sound like lying. So be
it!" The Time Traveler's story may have sounded outrageous to his
colleagues, but today physicists think Wells was onto something. In
fact, according to Albert Einstein's famous equation, E = mc˛ , time
travel is possible, at least in one direction. Going the other way
back to the past presents a trickier challenge.

The conclusion of this lecture is that rapid space-travel, or travel
back in time, can't be ruled out, according to our present
understanding.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/156718085X/timetravisitreal/026-2108358-0614042
This text shows how time travel is not only theoretically possible,
but that the future generations may already be engaged in it. Readers
can weigh up the evidence for themselves - and take part in the unique
programme, based on esoteric techniques and on the findings of
parapsychology and quantum physics, which enables them to structure
their own group investigation into a form of vivid mental time
travel.

Time Arrow
http://www.amazings.com/sbb/reviews/review0002.html
Eleven eminent scholars, standing at the boundary between physics and
philosophy, attempt to answer these questions in an entertaining yet
rigorous way. For example, William Unruth's chapter is one of the
first non-technical essays by this important cosmologist and Huw Price
discusses critically the exciting cosmological views of Hawking and
Penrose. Philip Stamp and Anthony Leggett discuss macroscopic quantum
phenomena, a subject which has not been discussed much outside the
specialist literature. John Earman's paper on time travel is likely to
become one of the landmarks in the literature.
Below you will find that I have carefully defined my search strategy
for you in the event that you need to search for more information. By
following the same type of searches that I did you may be able to
enhance the research I have provided even further. I hope you find
