Time travel is the concept of movement (often by a human) between different points in time in a manner analogous to moving between different points in space, typically using a hypothetical device known as a time machine. Time travel is a recognized concept in philosophy and fiction, but travel to an arbitrary point in time has a very limited support in theoretical physics, usually only in conjunction with quantum mechanics or Einstein–Rosen bridges. Sometimes the above narrow meaning of time travel is used, sometimes a broader meaning. For example, travel into the future (not the past) via time dilation is a well-proven phenomenon in physics (relativity) and is routinely experienced by astronauts, but only by several milliseconds, as they can verify by checking a precise watch against a clock that remained on Earth. Time dilation by years into the future could be done by taking a round trip during which motion occurs at speeds comparable to the speed of light, but this is not currently technologically feasible for vehicles.
A time machine is a fictional/hypothetical device used to achieve time travel. The term may also refer to:
The Time Machine (also known promotionally as H. G. Wells' The Time Machine) is a 1960 British-American time travel science fiction film from MGM in Metrocolor, produced and directed by George Pal and starring Rod Taylor, Yvette Mimieux, and Alan Young. The film is based on the 1895 novella of the same name by H. G. Wells that was hugely influential on the development of science fiction.
An inventor in Victorian England constructs a machine that enables him to travel into the distant future; once there, he discovers that mankind's descendants have divided into two species, the passive, child-like, and vegetarian Eloi and the underground-dwelling Morlocks, who feed on the Eloi.
George Pal, who had earlier made a film version of Wells' The War of the Worlds (1953), always intended to make a sequel to The Time Machine, but he died before it could be produced; the end of Time Machine: The Journey Back functions as a sequel of sorts. In 1985 elements of this film were incorporated into the documentary The Fantasy Film Worlds of George Pal.
Axxis is a German heavy metal band that was founded in 1988. Their debut album, "Kingdom of the Night", became the best-selling debut album ever by a hard rock band in Germany in 1989.
Axxis' musical roots lie within the traditional heavy rock of the 70s and 80s including influences of 90s electronic music. Bernhard's unique vocal style is another characteristic trademark of the band. Axxis' major ambition is "to be a pure Rock n' Roll band".
Hear the clock as time goes by
We're born, we live, we die
Clockwork burns in my brain
Flashes are driving me insane
The past is not to change
Only the future can ever be rearranged
I'm on this trip through time and space
How would it be to meet each other
- Younger - face to face
I will fly in a time machine
One look - straight back - to you
I will fly in a time machine
One flash - we live - we die
One minute of my life could be
An everlasting journey to eternity
Cause on the day that I die
I would use the time machine - and fly
I'm on this trip through time and space
How would it be to meet each other
- Younger - face to face
I will fly in a time machine
One look - straight back - to you
I will fly in a time machine
One flash - we live - we die
Shadows hideaway but we survive
I invite you to the ride
Across the circle of my life
Hear the clock as time goes by
We're born, we live, we die
I will fly in a time machine
One look - straight back - to you
I will fly in a time machine
As time goes by
We live, we die
One flash
