A common theme in science fiction, time travel has been explored in wide-ranging works of fiction from H.G. Wells’ The Time Machine to Audrey Niffenegger’s The Time Traveler’s Wife. Scientists at Cornell University invented a time cloak. They hid an event for 40 trillionths of a second and tinkered with the speed of light. Many feel time travell's call.
Do you feel a fascination for time travel? If you returned to a time in history, where would you go? If you could observe a past event, in the moment, which one would you view?
Choose a specific time and place in history and invent a character who observes it with today's knowledge. Does the character want to change anything or could he or she adapt to crossing the country in a covered wagon and meeting the challenges of nature? What would happen by adding today's conveniences?
Have fun writing about time travel.
