5 Movie Time Travel Theories Explained

Star Trek: Generations
Something about Captains Kirk and Picard meeting for the first time, then galloping side-by-side on horseback through a meadow. This movie was awful.

What it says about time travel
Less about the recorded history, and more about the imagined history, this movie says that whoever gets caught in “The Nexus” — a giant ribbon of energy — can live forever, wherever, doing whatever he or she desires.

Real life time travel theory in play: Cosmic Strings
Some scientists believe in the existence of narrow tubes of energy that stretch across the length of the universe. These thin regions are predicted to contain huge amounts of mass and therefore could actually warp the space-time around them. The interaction of two or more cosmic strings would theoretically bend space-time so radically that time travel might be possible.
