For a long time, Avdeyev held the record for time dilation experienced by a human being. [1] [2] [3] In his 747 days aboard Mir, cumulative across three missions, he went approximately 27,360 km/h and thus aged roughly 0.02 seconds (20 milliseconds) slower from an Earthbound person's perspective, [4] which is considerably more than any other human being, except Sergei Krikalev.

Ronald Mallett is still working on rotating lasers to travel back in time. ... it’s actually going to cause a twisting of time.” ... Is the 50/30/20 budget rule still even possible in 2025?
Time travel is a concept in philosophy and fiction, particularly science fiction. In fiction, time travel is typically achieved through the use of a device known as a time machine. The idea of a time machine was popularized by H. G. Wells's 1895 novel The Time Machine. [1] It is uncertain whether time travel to the past would be physically ...
The symbolic clock now reads 89 seconds to midnight after advancing one second since last year's reset. It is now the closest to midnight since the introduction of the clock in 1947.
The chronology protection conjecture is a hypothesis first proposed by Stephen Hawking that laws of physics beyond those of standard general relativity prevent time travel—even when the latter theory states that it should be possible (such as in scenarios where faster than light travel is allowed).
As far as timing goes, travel seems to be easier at certain times of year, seemingly at times related to the changing seasons. Claire first traveled back in time just after the festival of Beltane ...
One year later, the ship is back home and the clock shows 6 years. So, during the trip back, both twins see their sibling's clock going 3 times faster than their own. Factoring out the fact that the light-time-delay is decreasing by 0.8 seconds every second, each twin calculates that the other twin is aging at 60% his own aging speed.
The theoretical study of time travel generally follows the laws of general relativity. Quantum mechanics requires physicists to solve equations describing how probabilities behave along closed timelike curves (CTCs), which are theoretical loops in spacetime that might make it possible to travel through time.
