Is it? wormholes can go from time to time so time has to be recorded right? Is it prerecorded?
Discuss.

I think not, and I'll use this theory to support my thoughts: The Multiverse theoryfirst the Multiverse theory, meaning that there's a universe for every option of every choice you could ever made, resulting in an infinite amount of universes. for example, there could be a universe where i ate a peanut butter sandwich this morning, but does everything the same as i do now... while i ate nothing this morning (just to display how minor a change can be for this theory). this means that, hypothetically, wormholes could travel to the universes where a lot of technological finds have not been discovered yet, hence it might appear you're back in time, but you're not, you just met a less advanced race (or the other way around, you're forward in time but you met a more advanced race, meaning we didn't make those discoveries yet). just my 2 cents. p.s. avery, stargate fan?  p.p.s. @mod move to debate club? |

The type of wormhole that science generally accepts is a small tear in a space time continuum that connects one point in space and time to another, either in the same continuum (same universe) or a different one (multi-verse theory).
In this sense, time isn't so much an object, as a possible quantifier. You can quantify your current value of time. Without time time travel this quantifier scales linearly (by seconds), and with time travel you can have discontinuities in your time path. Likewise position in space isn't so much a recorded object as it is simply a quantifier that describes where in space you are.
