      The closest we have ever got to time travel is in an astronomy textbook. We know that time can distort in space, if you travel close to a black hole….you can technically travel in to the future. No human has ever actually done this though, as you get close to a black hole you will be sucked in and undergo a process known as spaghettification (yes, its a real thing!). People would get stretched by the black hole and wouldn’t survive…so not worth it! 🌌
      .
      As for time travel in to the past, this is against the laws of physics so will not be possible any time soon unfortunately ⌛
