 Getting In A Twist Over Time
Mallett has worked out that a circulating beam of light, slowed to a snail's pace, just might be the vital ingredient for time travel.
When Mallett studied the work of Einstein -- who died in the same year as his father -- he realised that Wells's novel was right on track: time travel is, in theory at least, achievable.
But when Mallett took another look at his solutions, he saw that the effect of circulating light depends on its velocity: the slower the light, the stronger the distortion in space-time.

This is an old article (06/20/2001) but Professor Mallett was recently featured on the Discovery Channel and he also gave a public lecture on his work last week.
A greater drawback is that travel to the past can't go any farther back than when the time machine itself was built, so we'd have to borrow a machine from a friendly ancient alien civilization if we wanted to go back to paleojudaic times.

The time as a grad student she went to hear a Nobel prizewinner lecture, and in the Q and A afterward he ignored her, then apologized by saying he assumed she was someone's girlfriend.
Or the conferences she attended with her thesis adviser, UConn's Ronald Mallett, who is African American, another group scarcely represented among physicists.
In her jovial informality and her willingness to do almost anything for her students, Larsen seems like a born teacher, and she downplays her own accomplishments as a scientist.
