There is still a secrecy. It's quite obvious that our government is hiding something. Time travel was around for years before it was unveiled to the public, and there were rumors about the military acquiring the technology from aliens.
The way time travel is used, requires a huge amount of human resources. My trip here to 2008 probably cost the university close to 150 million dollars, and about 3 dozen scientists and physicists. I applied in 2047, when I applied for the university itself, and I didn't get the go-ahead until fall semester of 2048 (Requires a 4.0 GPA to be accepted). To go 50 years through time... precisely, and at the same location at an NYU research lab, is no small feat.
I can imagine, if the military has tried to get to other worlds, it would require many years and numerous to get the math right.
To sum it up, No, aliens as of right now, are not known to exist. But many people believe. |
you guys shoulda just used a ....

Yeah, I could totally see NYU spending 150 million dollars to help a kid out with a paper on trance music. |

Ah yes, I forgot that the dollar would undoubtedly be immensely devalued if we came to heads with China... so yeah, it's totally reasonable that NYU would spend 250 million dollars (2008) in order to help a kid with a music paper. |

does "pull my finger" have the same trigger effect in 2049?
did we find Jimmy Hoffa by then as well?
does anyone in the future remember 'where the beef went'?? |

You fail to understand. 150 million 2049 would be about 1.5 million 2008. |
