This form of time dilation is also real, and it's because in Einstein's theory of general relativity, gravity can bend spacetime, and therefore time itself. The closer the clock is to the source of gravitation, the slower time passes; the farther away the clock is from gravity, the faster time will pass. On a cosmic scale it is a time travel. Time is measured differently for the twin who moved through space and the twin who stayed on Earth. The clock in motion will tick more slowly than the clocks we’re watching on Earth. If you’re able to travel near the speed of light, the effects are much more pronounced.

I will definitely go back to my past if this is possible, You?

You past is now. Focus on the future as past always becomes irrelevant 🧙‍‍♀️
I go always forward and never look back. 🧙‍
