Given the fact that data is an electric circuit of ones and zeros, flowing at the speed of light, could we technically send information across time?

    There is an experiment that has been trying to receive a message before sending that message for a while now, unsuccessfully.

    You could very easily send data forward in time though. If you think about it, I’m doing that right now. As you did when making this post. You posted it 11 hours ago and I only just now saw it, in the future.

      yeah, but you can’t reply to me back 11 hours ago, when I posted it, right? that was my initial question, whether it’s possible to achieve that in theory or not.

        That is correct. And it’s neither possible in practice, nor in theory.
