Could someone from the future already be walking among us?

🧪 What Science Says About Time Travel
🧠 1. Einstein’s Theory of Relativity
Time slows down the faster you move. Technically, time travel to the future is possible (astronauts on the ISS age slightly slower).
🧊 2. Wormholes
Theoretical shortcuts through space-time could allow backward travel—if they exist and can be stabilized.
🔬 3. Closed Timelike Curves
Quantum theories suggest loops in time may exist, though they may violate causality (creating paradoxes).
So far: no verified case of time travel—yet.
