Time Travel
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_travel
Time travel seems to be an interesting subject with constant theories regarding how it works and if it is possible. It can be heavily used with science and space with the possibility of travelling at the speed of light through wormholes or blackholes in space, as seen in films such as interstellar or star trek, which have theories of a parallel universe.

The Man From Taured
https://obscurban-legend.fandom.com/wiki/The_Man_from_Taured
When it comes to time travel and parallel universes, an interesting story is the man from Taured. It tells the story of a man who is being questioned at a Japanese airport (in 1954) as his passport stated he is from a country called Taured. The man was described as a neatly-dressed middle-aged Caucasian man. His primary language was French, yet he spoke Japanese and several other languages. In his wallet was a variety of currencies from various European countries, as if to verify his frequent flyer tendencies.
Customs officials showed him a world map and pointed to the tiny country of Andorra. The man became irate, saying that Andorra didn’t exist but it was right where Taured should be. His country had existed for a thousand years. The man was detained by customs and given a room at a nearby hotel for the night while officials tried to figure out what was going on. The following morning, the man from Taured completely vanished from his hotel room which had been guarded by immigration officials all night long. And to make matters worse, all of his personal documents—including his passport and driver’s license issued by the mystery country—vanished from the airport’s secure room with no indication of how he achieved this strange escape. He had seemingly vanished into thin air.
John Titor

Titor claimed to be an American soldier from 2036, based in Tampa in Hillsborough County, Florida, who was assigned to a governmental time-travel project. Purportedly, Titor had been sent back to 1975 to retrieve an IBM 5100 computer which he said was needed to “debug” various legacy computer programs in 2036; a reference to the UNIX year 2038 problem. The 5100 runs the APL and BASIC programming languages. Titor had been selected for this mission specifically, given that his paternal grandfather was directly involved with the assembly and programming of the 5100.

John Titor, in a fax to Art Bell, read on Coast to Coast on July 29, 1998 (condensed):
Titor had stated a few predictions stating that the 2008 Olympic games would be cancelled. Sure we can confirm that they weren’t cancelled, however the 2020 Olympics were. He also mentioned something about a ‘Mad Cow Pandemic’, sure we didn’t get that but we did get a Coronavirus Pandemic. So, in his defense we can argue his lapses of time as he did mention some things at different points of time.
The most immediate of Titor’s predictions was of an upcoming civil war in the United States having to do with “order and rights” He described it as beginning in 2004, with civil unrest surrounding the presidential election of that year. As a result of the war, the United States splits into five regions based on various factors and differing military objectives. This civil war, according to Titor, will end in 2015 with a brief but intense World War III. Like we mentioned before there was no civil war in 2004, but by the way things are going in 2020 there may be something this year after the election, some may say ANTIFA/BLM vs QANON.
In 2015, Russia launches a nuclear strike against the major cities in the United States (which is the “other side” of the civil war from my perspective), China,
