Time Travel… how does it work?
The portal utilizes a combination of quantum tunneling and temporal displacement theory. The portal is powered by a stabilized wormhole generator that manipulates spacetime curvature, allowing safe traversal through temporal coordinates. Quantum entanglement ensures that passengers' atomic structures remain coherent, preventing disintegration during the journey. To achieve temporal stability, the system employs synchronized atomic clocks and gravitational wave manipulation to maintain precise time-location coordinates. Travellers should be equipped with chronal stabilizers—wearable devices that maintain biological integrity and ensure a safe return timeline.
Mr Kit and Rob Hopkins have gained international recognition for the Disbelief Suspenders and the Cynicism Overrider circuits they have developed which allow them to follow quantum threads that lead to the futures that resulted from our doing everything we could possibly have done. Rumour has it that they have been nominated for the 2026 Nobel Prize.
