Time Travel - If you could travel back in time ?

[fansongecho]

What era's would you travel back to and what figure(s) in history would you want to observe ?

For this thought experiment you cant be seen and you cannot interfere with the history you are observing. 


For me it would be the Roman Invasion of Britain and Boadicea

The building of the Pyramids and Tutankhamun reign

The War of Independence and the US side of the story

China and the Ming Dynasty

World War 2 and the rise to power of Hitler

Los Alamos and the A bomb development

NASA and the moon missions

Cheers!

Atlantis

Antarctica when it was tropical

To a time when otherworlders were fighting for the survival of humans

So many things to see, so little time... Or maybe not, if we could return to the time we went to the past we wouldn't spend any time doing it.

I think I would start with some fact checking, like how they built the pyramids and what really happened at Roswell.

[astr0144]

Bob Lazars and John Lears  days when they observed the Saucers at Area 51..

Or what A51 witnessed some time later..

Otherwise maybe too many other options and How much time would you have to attend to really see any change..

as each erras could have taken years to develop

I would have to observe like we see in the Time Machine Film..

where as he travels thru time we see a moving picture thru various date time lines..

BUt even then where does one want to be at these times..
as so much can be happening of interest all close to or at  the same time or in varying areas..

I would need to see views from varying places and times if say trying to observe and take in all the varitaion in the creation of say the Roman empire or the developement  of the Pyramids as an eg..which is over a much longer period..

Where as other things may be smaller or even one or a few  day events.. again things may occur at varying places even on smaller time scales and areas..


Its not an easy question to answer.
