Why is time travel seen deemed impossible?

Because every possible time travel possibility requires infinite energy.

because paradoxes
you could imagine e.g. 2 time dimensions where you can travel freely in 1 without paradoxes
e.g. go back to the time you were born, but not the "previous" time you were born

nope. going to another universe wouldn't be time travel.
you time travel as we speak. because you are in a gravity well you enjoy less overall time in this universe. less than GPS satellites. as seen from the satellite's view, your clock ticks slower.
the same effect is present across your body. your head is technically older than your feet. time passes slower for your feet when you stand upright

If you think you "cannot time travel" because the universe is worried about you shooting your own grandfather or otherwise preventing your present from coming to be, you're an idiot. This is beyond any doubt. There is no policeman that stops you when you build your time travel machine and then says "do you know how many paradoxes you were about to create?" It's utterly absurd.

"Logical impossibility" is a nonsense argument. It's like trying to debate the "logical impossibility" of some of the absurdities found in Black Holes or quasars or whathaveyou. The Universe is full of weird shit, nobody cares. Strangeness or incomprehensibility is not an argument. An amoeba's ability to understand the dynamics of the universe has no effect on what is or isn't possible.
An actual argument would be something like infinite energy requirement or the creation of parallel universes (so you can never go to the past, just a 'new' past in a new timeline as your mere interference by existing has caused a divergence). But paradoxes are moronic.

paradoxes signal a flawed understanding of something. if a paradox pops up it means you fucked up in your assumptions. thus, time travel the way you think of it, which is what Hollywood thought you to think about, is logically flawed.

As I said, infinite energy is more likely the real reason. It's not the fact you'd do something strange, it's just that you can't. Like the idea of antigravity.

Time Travel itself isn't deemed impossible, iirc Einstein's equations actually sets up framework for time travel.
the thing that isn't agreed upon is rather one can time travel within the time-stream one originates from.

>>16155852
again, iirc (as I don't know it by memory) the way that entropy works or something along those lines allows for time to flow backwards.
But the arguments being spoken of states that you're not capable of traveling in your own timeline and what happens is you end up diverging into a new timeline. this upholds the "grandfather paradox" in such a way that if you did go back and shoot your grandfather, yea he would die in that timeline and in only that new branch does your birth never happen.

from my understanding, the time travel only impacts those traveling in the time stream,
it doesn't rewind time for anyone outside of the 'ship' or whatever is used to travel backwards.

You had to unpause it which would necessarily take time, so you obviously couldn't have actually paused it, then unpaused it, give that once pause it would have to stay paused if you actually paused time instead of just pretending.

in a gravity well maybe. when you travel, all of you travels together as a single frame of reference. you'd have varied frames of reference along your body either when falling in a blackhole either when bits of you accelerate faster than other bits of you which is always bad news for you.
but if you are traveling with all of your atoms, all will be at same speed as your brain which is (You), so they all share the same frame unless you are in a gravity well and there's a differential across your body

No, whenever you walk, your legs are traveling more than twice as fast as your upper body since they have to constantly go back and forth instead of forward at a steadier rate like the rest of your body.

Paradoxes don't exist, because the Everett interpretation is true. If you time travel, you just go to an alternate timeline. You can kill your grandfather there and you simply won't be born in that timeline. You can apply this to any supposed paradox. Whether or not that timeline has always 'been' or starts with your interference, or perhaps both, is unknown. Maybe this is why you need infinite energy to travel in time.

It would take infinite energy to reverse causality because there are infinite events happening simultaneously that you would have to reverse to reverse all of time.
