Time travel
hypothetical activity of traveling into the past or future From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Time travel is the idea of going back in time to the past or forward to the future. We always travel forward, to the future. Time travel to the past is not known to be possible, but it is much used in fiction. The Time Machine (1895) by H. G. Wells was one of the first and most famous stories of time travel. Much later, the American movie "Back to the Future" tells a fictional story about a professor who builds a machine that can take people into the future or back in the past.
The popular British TV program Doctor Who is about an alien who has adventures by time travelling in a space time machine. Another TV show about time travel is the series Charmed. Instead of using machines and science, this one uses magic to go to other times and places. Quantum Leap is another show which features "leaping" a form of time travel that allows a person to "relive events of another in history" it is similar to "Assassin's Creed" but in Quantum leap you can actually change history not just merely relive and shape it.
Some series that are not mainly about time travel have episodes about it, for example Star Trek and Stargate and The Flash.
