I wish to believe it is possible, but from what I read (some vague memory) and how I perceive time, I don't see it as a linear entity in which one can scroll forward and backward. Moreover, if you wish to travel you require some sort of references. What could be chosen, a moment in the life cycle of a certain star? Also, there has to be a relation to a certain mass which one "follows" through time - you can't escape the space-time continuum.
By this I mean to say that I believe you can't simply wish to go back in 1987 and have fun at the Lynyrd Skynrd Tribute Tour. You require more information relative to your target in space and time. How would one quantify that?
Seeing how we barely began understanding quantum entaglement, I believe we are decades away (optimistically) from the first time-travel proof-of-concept tests.
