Scientists trying to take advantage of the unusual properties of the quantum realm say they have successfully simulated a method of backward time travel that allowed them to change an event after the fact one out of four times. The Cambridge University team is quick to caution that they have not built a time machine, per se, but also note how their process doesn’t violate physics while changing past events after they have happened.

    Ok, I have a proposal to test the theory. I’ll buy a lottery ticket the day before a drawing, then let’s go back and change the numbers I picked. Even if it only works 25% of the time, I’m willing to buy 4 lottery tickets.

      Id imagine it would be a 1/4 chance your lottery ticket would have different numbers. Not a 1/4 chance that it won
