Help me, I\'m new. Please.
There is so much info on the 'net about time travel I really can't go through it all trying to find the answer to my question, but I really need to know, it's annoying the hell out of me.
I don't know if you can help me, or if this gets asked a lot, it probably does, here goes;
If a time travel machine was to be invented and was used to travel through time at different speed to which we normally do, surely you'd have to have some way of ensuring that you went to the appropriate position in space/time so you wouldn't end up in a far part of space? Just to clarify what I mean, if you were to travel back one minute back in time but not move in space/time the place you left from could be light years away, due to the expansion of the universe and the rotation of the galaxies etc.
I know I haven't explained it very well but I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out and tell me what you think. Am I right or completely mistaken about how stuff works?
thanx in advance.
