Описание: My sixth documentarian style blog, which is the first in my series of Doctor Who Mythology, which is on the topic of the various theories on time travel. I first ask the question on whether time travel is even possible, by examining and nuancing the two positions on the nature of time, which are the Presentist Theory and the Eternalist Theory. I then discuss Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity, particularly concerning the nature of time, and demonstrate how time is relative. I then examine the concept of the Grandfather Paradox, and nuance its meaning relating to time travel. Then I discuss the special relationship that the Time Lords of Gallifrey have with time, and how they are very guarded over their technology and ability to time travel. I then examine and nuance the three popular theories on time travel that the majority of science fiction genres use in their time traveling stories, which are the Fixed Timeline Theory, the Dynamic Timeline Theory, and the Multiverse Timeline Theory. I examine how various Doctor Who stories make use of all three of those theories before I go on to explore a fourth option taken from the book Doctor Who and Philosophy: Bigger on the Inside. I then nuance this fourth theory, known as the Growing Block Theory, and demonstrate how I think this theory best fits the overall metanarrative of time travel in the Whovian universe.
