โPhysicists often quote from T. H. Whiteโs epic novel The Once and Future King , where a society of ants declares, โEverything not forbidden is compulsory.โ In other words, if there isnโt a basic principle of physics forbidding time travel, then time travel is necessarily a physical possibility. (The reason for this is the uncertainty principle. Unless something is forbidden, quantum effects and fluctuations will eventually make it possible if we wait long enough. Thus, unless there is a law forbidding it, it will eventually occur.)โ
