Professor of Applied Physics, Ronald Mallett, joins the program to explain why he believes time travel is not only possible, but why it could also explain some of humanity's biggest mysteries—including whether future humans may already be visiting us.Driven by the devastating loss of his father at a young age, Dr. Mallett dedicated his life to understanding the physics of time travel in hopes of one day finding a way to save him. That deeply personal mission became a lifelong scientific pursuit, leading him to develop a theory he believes could make time travel possible.Today, we explore the science behind time travel, whether changing the past could prevent tragedies or save lives, the grandfather paradox, the possibility of future humans traveling back through time and why mainstream science has been slow to embrace these ideas. Whether you're fascinated by physics, UFOs, or the biggest unanswered questions about our universe, this discussion will challenge how you think about time, reality, and humanity's future.Learn more about Professor Ronald Mallett at Physics.UConn.edu.
