Reply to comment by TheRealDonData in What if time travel to the past was possible? by Perseverxnce

>We would be better off traveling into the future, to see what’s happening there, so we can better prepare for it. Or perhaps make changes in the present, that can positively benefit our future.

But then you'd have to travel back into the past again so you can let everyone know what's going to happen ;)

Based on the current prevailing theories I’m assuming we could only experience the future or past while in the black hole or worm hole. Then we leave the hole and are back in the present. In that context it would make sense to “view” the future, not the past.

Well, by far the easiest way to time travel to the future is just to go very very fast, then relativity will put you there without the need for wormholes, black holes and so on.

Of course, that's not reversible though, going very very fast backwards won't help.

Dunno about the black hole / wormhole approach, I'd thought there was no way of transmitting information across a black hole event horizon.

Worm holes might be another matter though.
