HISTORY OF TIME TRAVEL TIMELINE

DATE	EVENT
1895	British author H.G. Wells publishes "The Time Machine."
1905	Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity shows that space and time are relative, not absolute, and that time is actually a fourth dimension within what he calls "space-time."

1937	Mathematician Kurt Goedel proposes that the universe itself may be a time machine.
1949	Goedel demonstrates mathematically that pathways through time are possible.
1967	U.S. physicist John Wheeler invents the name "black hole" to describe singularities in space and time.
1974	Astrophysicist Frank Tipler plots paths around a vast, imaginary spinning cylinder, confirming that paths through time can exist.
1987	Air Force scientist and engineer David Anderson proposes his time-warped field theory.
1988	Caltech University's Kip Thorne suggests using wormholes as a possible means of time travel.
1990	David Anderson extends time-warped field theory creating the worlds' first complete space-time model and virtual laboratory.
