Are there any time travel stories that consider the movement of the earth?

I mean, if you travel into the past or future, the earth would most likely be in a different position in the time you travelled to, right? So if YOUR position remains the same, you would materialize into empty space. But time travel movies never seem to consider this.

    Just another reason to believe that time travel is science fiction, not fact. The only way to travel back in time is to view galaxies that are far away. Because light travels at a finite, but very fast, speed you are seeing the galaxies as they existed a long time ago, not as they exist (if they even do exist) today.

    well there is a possibility that there are many hidden factors at work which we just havent considered because they are related to laws of the universe which we as yet have not discovered. When getting into discussions abouit time and space and location there are many peculiarities we are not aware of... For example in poltergeist activities objects will re-locate instantly from one point to another in space, perhaps even thousands of miles and with no time elapse. Objects may pass through walls leaving them unscathed.

    As to the existence of poltergeist phenomena... there is plenty od research material on You Tube to satisfy the most ardently sceptical researcher.

    My book is the result of 27 years research in physics, quantum physics, relativity, cosmology, plasma physics, metaphysics, paranormal. It represents a totally new paradigm in physics and technology...and you will find much on the peculiarities of time and how it may be modified, speede up and slowed down, etc..
