Description
Time travel is an exciting topic. It is explored not only in countless works of fiction, but also in

the first main task of this talk is to sort out the numerous time travel processes that have been proposed.
The second main task is to investigate the bewildering array of time travel paradoxes. Do the paradoxes
show time travel to be impossible?
