I have been fascinated with the past all my life. Although time travel is not possible (at least, as far as I know), we can still experience it through what I call "relics of the fourth dimension." Namely, as the old saying goes, "time marches on." We can't travel in the fourth dimension, except going forward in the present, but we can follow the trail of the fourth dimension. Along the way, people lose or discard items from their being. These relics are unintentional time capsules that give us as glimpse into their lives. Here on The Time Searchers blog, I will show some relics of the past that I have run across in our present. Sometimes when I am out on a relic hunt with the Colonial Relic Hunter, we know that we are not alone. There is more than just relics at these historical sites. Indeed, it could be said that there is a portal to the past, perhaps to another dimension, where that which once was, still is. A place where the real consorts with the shadows; the present fuses with the past, on Time Searchers: Ghost Relics.

Movies We Love: Final Countdown - December 7, 1941

Here's a blog entry that I didn't intend to make this day, but I couldn't pass it up.  The December 7 anniversary reminded me of a film called "The Final Countdown."  It's a wonderful movie that explores the idea of time travel when a modern day U.S. Navy aircraft carrier encounters a stage storm-like vortex which disappears after the ship passes through it.

The entire ship and crew find themselves back in time to December 7, 1941.  This situation raises the question of whether a person should intervene and change not only the history of that event, but the entire course of history.  It is a question that all time travelers have to decide.  That is, if time travel is really possible.

Here's the link to the trailer for this film.  It's a Time Searchers recommended film.
