if einstein went back and took out hitler, how come he didnt go back and stop stalin then?

Maybe when he travelled back and got rid of Hitler, the events changed so that the ideas of time travel he had never actually came to be in that reality. I suggest reading up on many of the theories proposed by Einstein. Many are very interesting, although some are complex, but who cares? It is all absolutely jolly good fun!

Um... that would create a Paradox retard... lol if time travel never came to be a possibility Einstein would have never gone back to kill him thus a paradox... [ December 16, 2002, 16:40: Message edited by: Godhates ]

lol ok that was lame ... no offence but if he got tired... he could have done it another day so thats not a possibility [ December 16, 2002, 16:59: Message edited by: Godhates ]

anyone see the Time Machine... technically Einstein could NOT have killed Hitler when he went back in time, as the reason he built it was Hitler, therefore, if Hitler never rose to power, then he would not have went back for that sole purpose... as mentioned above, a paradox, BUT he could have went back, just not been able to kill him...
just my two cents...

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure was the only movie I have seen that actually kept true to what time travel would really do. Everything that you have done in the time machine has already happened meaning, if you were to go back and kill someone they wouldn't even be alive in the first place.
Just my 2 cents...

I find it funny that they chose Einstein to "travel back in time", since his own theory of relitivity states that it is not possible to go back in time...

No, because his intentions to begin designing the initial Chronosphere device were for the U.S. government, as stated before... Which means since he originally made it for the U.S. goverment, that means he could do anything but go back in time and try to stop himself from working for them... Or do anything which would affect that outcome.

didn't you see the time machine? maybe becuase no matter what he did, War would happen.

no, because in the time machine, the reason he built it was to go back and save his girlfreind. dur! ACK is right, he was working on the machine just because, not because of hitler. no paradox there.
and it is true, einstein himself said going back in time was impossible.
dont forget, the chronoshphere still existed after he altered history, and then in YR he made a new more stable time machine.
"he got tired" is tupid. he could always have someone else do it if he could not.
it is possible that no matter what, war would happen. but without hitler and stalin,it would have continued to build up, and would have been much more devestating to the world. maybe the ra einstein saw this.

WAIT! there is one thing. Regardless of what it says in RA2, how do we know from information in Red Alert that it was Einstein who went back in time, I mean that guy doesn't even look like the Einstien who appears in the Allied breifings.

ACTUALLY... Einstein never said it wasnt possible his theory did... althought time travel to the past is not yet possible in our present technology we can actually send someone to the future of course we would never know if it works lol and plus the supplies needed etc. BUT its still possible... for more information on this just read these books: Time Travel in Einsteins Universe by J. Richard Gott and The Universe In a Nutshell by Stephen Hawking Im probly going to study Quantum Mechanics in college (if they accept me LOL)
And btw if you make a time machine just to go see something(not a person tho) its ok but you cant kill anyone actually u could but it would have to be at random and not meditated or u would make a paradox lol so time travel is very unstable even if u just wanted to look at something...

nope, wrong.
We can indeed send someone into the future, but we cannot bring them back. because all forward time travel is, is moving so fast that time around you actually slows down. in fact you could actually look behind you and see a sort of "chrono shadow".
this is actually light bouncing off of you so slowly that when you move away from your position that the light has yet to move away from where you were. seeing as how you are moving faster than the speed of light.

and of course, if it were possible to go back in time, there would of course be the "Langolier" problem

well, new technology is made everyday, new discoveries prove old proven theories wrong. I beleive that if time travel is discovered in the future that they would have the sense to keep a low profile and try to alter history as little as possible. but then there is the heisenburg uncertiney theory which states (i believe) that you cannot observe without altering.
sorry for the spelling errors, I dont type these words everyday.

Time travel is impossible since time is not a place, but a simple ilussion of our senses, a state of mind. However, if you know about the Multiverse theory, travelling through parallel dimensions can be made with the right machines...

you probably could try to time tavel back, but a pile of mush or a fried corpse is the likely output of this attempt.
