Interview with John Titor (Part 1)

The following webcomic is based on John Titor's actual web forum postings on timetravelinstitute.com from November, 2000 to March, 2001.

 

 

Welcome back to the Ryzak Report.

I am your host Ryzak Fennelflak.

We are here with time traveller John Titor, who has been ever so kind today in joining us from the year 2036.

Mr. Titor, welcome to the show.

Thank you for having me.

 Now please forgive me if I am too direct, but I must begin with the question on all of our minds: HOW? 

How is time travel possible, 

and how did you get here?

Well, the basics for time travel start at CERN in about a year and end in 2034 with the first "time machine" built by GE. 

Too bad we can't post pictures or I'd show it to you.

 You can't show us any pictures? Why not?

Can you at least tell us how it works?

These are the basic materials needed for a gravity distortion system that will allow time travel:

1. Magnetic housing units for dual Microsingularities.

2. Electron Injection Manifold to alter mass and gravity of Microsingularities.

3. Cooling and X-Ray Venting System.

4. Gravity Sensors (VGL System)

5. Main Clocks (4 Cesium units)

6. Main Computer units (3)

 

What does traveling in time look like?

The unit has a ramp up time after the destination coordinates are fed into the computers. An audible alarm and a small light start a short countdown at which point you should be secured in a seat. 

The gravity field generated by the unit overtakes you very quickly. You feel a tug toward the unit similar to rising quickly in an elevator and it continues to rise based on the power setting the unit is working under. 

 ...

 At 100% power, the constant pull of gravity can be as high as 2 Gs or more depending on how close you are to the unit. 

There are no serious side effects, but I try to avoid eating before a flight.

 

Interesting. Is there a flash of light of any kind? How do you know when you have succesfully made a jump?

No. Outside, the vehicle appears to accelerate as the light is bent around it.

We have to wear sunglasses or close our eyes as this happens due to a short burst of ultraviolet radiation. Personally I think it looks like driving under a rainbow. We're advised to keep the windows closed as a great deal of heat builds up outside the car. The gravity field also traps a small air pocket around the car that acts as your only O2 supply unless you bring compressed air with you.

 

Of course! Shows what I know, I hadn't even considered the thought of an Oxygen supply.

This pocket will only last for a short period and a carbon sensor tells us when it's too dangerous. 

The C204 unit is accurate from 50 to 60 years a jump and travels at about 10 years an hour at 100% power.
