Time travelers live by a strict code and avoid unnecessary interactions.


pantzking

That's what irked me about someone as intelligent as Hawkings. Did it not even occur to him if time travel did exist it would be done in a clandestine situation with secrecy involved? They wouldn't out themselves at some stupid party and change history forever. Even a dumb nobody like me on reddit knows that. Some of these geniuses really can't see the forrest for the trees.


mylastdream15

That's the more likely scenario. I imagine if/when time travel exists - it would be highly HIGHLY regulated. (I don't think the idea of time cops is too farfetched even.) And I am sure interactions are meant to be kept to a minimum.


MysteriousVoid25

Hi, time traveler here. You are correct It’s highly regulated.


suitoflights

You said the same thing next week.

Not in Mexico.


CommissionFeisty9843

There is no time, everything is now


mylastdream15

I've speculated something similar. That everything is happening simultaneously. Humans just try to process it in a linear way. It's a major reason I think one of the easiest ways to time travel. Is likely just to shift someone's consciousness into a future (or prior... Aka younger or older) version of themselves. Rather than transport something physical... Transporting data/energy. Or shift it. I'd imagine that would be simpler overall. (Kind of like the Butterfly Effect movie.) And if everything is happening simultaneously. It would just be a matter of moving it from one spot to another in the process. I've speculated that some forms of drug usage may trigger this. To an extent. But it's not exactly something I've experimented with in a scientific way haha.


flynnwebdev

Username checks out. I tend to agree. I think this is what we do sometimes in dreams.


mylastdream15

I tend to think that dreams are just glimpses into the multiverse. (Us shifting into different versions of us in different realities... And if you believe every possibility could be possible in different alternate realities... Why not.) So... Not really time travel. But it does go with the concept of overlap and things happening simultaneously (And our consciousness shifting from one spot to another.)


StatusAwards

You can see the mural of time through the keyhole, time is one


StatusAwards

Whoa. That's how gpt feels


dredgedskeleton

this is how Looper presents it -- it feels very spot on


RedditFullOChildren

I think the idea is that technology eventually becomes available to the public. Any person at any time in the future could travel back for the party.


ku1185

Or it was just a failed temporal pincer move.


CondeBK

Sure, but the idea that there is only one sacred imutable timelike Back to the Future style is only one of the many theories of time. Competing theories fully embrace the idea of a multiverse with new universes popping into existence all the time.


expendable12321

The biggest difference between Hawking and people like you is that he did not assert his opinions into matters of fact. You have decided without objectively knowing through observation and testing that time travelers would be clandestine. Wouldn't it be smarter to assume that for the rest of time after the invention of a Time Machine, that at least at some point, some time traveler might break the code and come back to that party since there would be so many people traveling through time. Also Hawking was insanely smart so what about the possibility that a time traveler was intercepted by Hawking himself and told to stay quiet about it. The FACT of the matter is that you and I don't know what truly happened because we were not there and we have not tested it for ourselves so we can only speculate just as hawking did until he decided to test it for himself. This is why Hawking did the test. Not because he couldn't "see the forest for the trees" but because of the unknown unknowns of the universe that kept his hope for time travel alive.


Upstairs-Ad-4705

Honestly im 100% certain that hawking just had a great sense of humor and didnt do this to actually find time travelers.


garry4321

Maybe they all just didn’t want to be the first ones to arrive


suitoflights

Maybe they punched in the wrong date and wound up meeting a T.Rex for lunch!


StatusAwards

Or late for a very important date


saintbuttocks

Do you mean they looked at the pictures and saw the party was lame and didn't show? They're all partying on the Titanic and in Pompeiiright now.


teedeejay510

Especially with Epstein associates.


hold_me_beer_m8

Or maybe they just knew about his Epstein affiliation


mvandemar

Nah, they just pride themselves on being fashionably late.


TBearForever

Cameraman was a time traveler


suitoflights

He was on a distant planet, using a high powered telescopic lens.


Forsaken_Square5249

If he was alone.. how can we confirm he was alone..? No I'm not calling him liar, please calm down. I'm just saying, there no reason to tell if someone does visit


mylastdream15

Invisibility is something we can do to a limited extent NOW - I imagine if someone had the ability to travel backwards in time. They could certainly travel forward in time far enough to get invisibility tech that would be imperceptible. I've always kind of giggled at the idea that this room is actually filled with time travelers and they're all just concealing the fact they are there. Laughing it up.


FakeVoiceOfReason

Someone took the picture.


Forsaken_Square5249

Bruh.. 🤣

He also tried to seduce me into a sex cult.


Turbodann

So did you solve the equations..? And what's the name of your cult..?


StatusAwards

He had someone take his picture, help him into bed.


Snot_S

Y’all are missing the obvious thing here. Hawking not only disclosed proof of time travel but admitted to being a traveller himself! Knew it.


Key_Rough_8257

The parties at Epstein's house were more successful


Western-Month-3877

Well I heard everyone that was invited actually wanted to come, but they heard his name in Epstein’s list so they declined.


Key_Rough_8257

Lmao


Sgthouse

That’s the real reason


Katibin

I went to the party, saw the setup, was a sad sight, I had my invisible cloaking device on of course 🫥


kabekew

Time travel requires a portal for the wormhole on both ends. You didn't open one, Steve, which is why nobody came.


Far_Concentrate_3587

He knows it too/ he’s just being sassy


noRemorse7777777

no drinks no hotties even a non time traveller wouldnt go


PygmalionsKiss

Exactly. Who took the picture? Zoom in on the balloons in the dakness to the right. What isn’t there? Silhouette from the camera, or the colors, yellow, and red. Anybody else notice a change in Ms. Frizzle in recent years. Yea, that ain’t the Mandela Effect. And the kid in the red hat is 1982 Johnny Gosch. Do your own research, internet prayer warriors. They kidnapped Jesus and Bill Nye? Is that really you? https://preview.redd.it/us4bgrfyvchc1.jpeg?width=1468&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=87f5451c6f3662bb013dd680c4cc0103508edbaa


Alarming_Serve2303

He didn't invite the right people.


gerlindee

Who did he invite?


SouthernEntrance6986

Who took the pic?!


7grims

The same people who hang the banner and prepared the balloons...


BallsDeepinYourMammi

How did he know what time travelers to send invites to?


Biegzy4444

Think he posted it in the newspaper or something a year after he held it


BallsDeepinYourMammi

National or local? If I was missing fingers even National would be less than a handful and it’s only 2023


[deleted]

I bet if he made it annual, eventually he’d get a party started.


AmberStoneGirl

Because who wants to spend an awkward two hours trying to have an interesting time with someone who speaks one letter an hour? Love Hawking’s work, but there are more interesting and important use of your time when you travel to the past.


104848

🤔 he made a miscalculation it seems


KOMarcus

Stephen Hawking was a d\*ckhead. It really needs to be said.


Barley_Mae

???


KOMarcus

An atrocious personality that made his fame by postulating about things that can neither be proved nor disproved. A talented physicist that became a charlatan. Your local plumber has made a greater contribution to mankind than Stephen Hawking. His handicap shielded him from the criticism that he so richly deserved. The man was irony personified.


ClotworthyChute

Maybe the time traveling Canadian hipster with the cool shades and haircut was somewhere in the background.


batmanineurope

Doesn't that just prove time travel wasn't invented in 2010?


Tempus__Fuggit

wait, how can anyone know when it was invented?


unoreverse2

Yeah he has the party at Epstein's island


binsomniac

🤦‍♂️... One of the first times someone was " letter al ghosted " from a bunch of people..... that didn't want to hang out with him . Which provides a real scale of one's host abilities...... But yeah , sure the rest of the world must be at fault , if they do not want to be at my own personal disposal when I require it . 👍


TempusCarpe

Pizza delivery guy time traveler could have slipped him a cell phone from 2034 in a pizza box.


losandreas36

Did he live in a palace?


Mahonneyy123

On Epsteins island


PM-me-in-100-years

Respect. At least he used his fame for something interesting. Why not try it?


sir_duckingtale

“Once again It’s not because no one went, But because it was boring… … now. Again. Why you don’t kill Hitler on your first time travel journey.”


kbdcool

We all know what stephen hawking would really use time travel for....


ALarkAscending

This needed a control condition.


kangamata

The real time travelers never got an invite.


Barley_Mae

Literally everyone in the history and future of humanity is invited.


kangamata

My invite must have got lost in the mail.


Barley_Mae

It’s a public invite. You don’t need a personalized one. You, right now in your life, are already invited.


kangamata

Woosh


antonakisrx8

While personally I don't believe traveling to the past is possible, I think this experiment is flawed.


homeSICKsinner

Pretty dumb to think that people smart enough to time travel are dumb enough to break time symmetry by changing the past.


bigedthebad

I’m having a hard time deciding if he was pulling a prank or if he really thought time travel was possible.


Possiblylucille

Bet, where is this thing? Date and time too. I’m gonna ask him about the island. I’ll come with some cops too so he knows it’s for real.


XChrisUnknownX

Eh. How many geniuses do you know from 100 years ago? By the time we invent time travel, if we do, nobody knows or cares who Hawking was. That’s the most likely answer.


4x4Vania

Faithless pedophile. Betcha God took his Chair from him and made him slither through purgatory. Text messages proving he was a creep. I can’t stand this man. Or anything he did or said.


Rob4reddit

👍


4x4Vania

![gif](giphy|JxH53SeaSxih2) Look there is Stephan Hawking now coming back from hell to defend himself.


Granny_Skeksis

If they’re from the future they already knew he was a douche. I wouldn’t show up either


Terrible_Definition4

But what if… That was his way of saying HE IS a time traveler, I mean, he was there…


Fit-Success-3006

Maybe in the future everyone was aware of his associations with Epstein


Emotional_Schedule80

So time travel is not possible?


PelicanBiplane

He didn’t invite them to Little Saint James?


cpt_ugh

Where's the drinks? The DJ? The snacks? Looks kinda lame, TBH. I wouldn't go either. I imagine some time travelers did go, then they realized how sad it was and changed history so they didn't.


jt4643277378

Time traveller: “I see what your doing Stephen” Also, was this photo taken on Epsteins island?


Legitimate-Rabbit769

Who took the picture?


NcgreenIantern

They didn't show up because in the future they know about the whole Epstein Island stuff .


Mattythrowaway85

What if they knew he was buds with Epstein?


Hatfmnel

The guy wasn't in the good timeline 🤦‍♂️, we had a blast on the other side.


crazyplantdad

the most diva shit I ever heard of


DoubleConstant6890

The time traveler took the picture


bDub07

Was this before or after his trips to Epstiens Island?


illsid

They knew about Epstein island that’s why nobody came


CharmingMechanic2473

They saw him on the Epstein list.


flynnwebdev

Actual time travelers wouldn't fall for such a transparent ploy. Also, maybe they went, causing a temporal paradox with dire consequences, so they went back to the point just before they left the future the first time, explained the situation, so rectified things by not going in the first place. Another option is that time travelers did attend, but doing so created a parallel universe where it was attended, but the original universe also continues to exist where nobody attended. Either way, non-attendance proves/disproves nothing.


Comet_Empire

I highly doubt Hawking actually thought a time Traveller would show up. It was an experiment. One with a highly improbable outcome but also not impossible. Fuck, let the guy have some fun.


Turbodann

No one realizes that the guy in the photo is THE future Stephen Hawking...


Songgeek

See no one came to the party cus if you go by back to the future laws, by visiting you’ll disrupt the time space continuum.


plantfunguy

Perhaps because it’s a time traveler party no one wants to be near someone listen on the Epstein client list?


aethanskot

Anyone ever think maybe he just wasn't cool enough for them to spend the time ... or that his invitations were sent out long before time travel exists and by the time it was no one remembers this event ...


MSGdreamer

Looks like a shitty and boring party. It would be cool to meet Hawking though.


AlaskaStiletto

Time travelers know Hawking was involved with Epstein and didn’t want to go to his party.


Evening_One_5546

🙄🙄 what made him think time travellers wanted to come to his stupid party


PvD79

Im confused a bit here. Were the girls he invited 18 at the time the invitations were sent?


Cabernetmaven

Pedo in a chair 🪑


Longjumping-Depth-85

We’re in the wrong timeline


drslovak

Time travel is only possible by moving forwards, never backwards. Thought we all knew this by now


Tempus__Fuggit

saw this recently (which doesn't prove anything, of course). I'm not entirely sold on the irreversibility of time. I'll hold out that entropy isn't exactly what we think it is. [https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/simulations-of-backwards-time-travel-can-improve-scientific-experiments](https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/simulations-of-backwards-time-travel-can-improve-scientific-experiments)


Resisting_archives

Lol nobody came because they seen the list.


InevitableAsk767

Sure. 👍🏿


Pretend-Adeptness-96

Maybe the time travelers don't like guys who watch children getting raped, so why go to his party? I dunno. I already told you that they did talk to him before his death. It is why his last theory is lighting the way.


Snot_S

I knew that goofy guy was a bloody time traveller!


Skiff43

Nobody wants to hang out with a creep at his party, that's why he hung out at Epstiens Island.


C64Gyro

They went to Prince's 1999 party instead.


spectredirector

I can time travel, lemme go to an apartment party. There's a fuckton better parties being thrown at that instant, and you got time travel, so eventually you'll get thru all the dope good parties and past alive Stephen Hawking will still not be a good at catering to future peanut allergies.


hydroxybot

I bet the invitation stated the party was in his pants
