Help Requested for Time Travel
My son is very ambitious. He wants to create a zoo with a mix of both extinct and extant species. Realistically, the only hurdle in his way is managing the time travel. He has some preliminary plans, and has asked me for help fleshing them out, but I admit that the mechanics are beyond me (I can’t even fix the catalytic hydrometer in my car when the motor flywheel valve gets clogged up).
So I’m asking for your help. Below are Jackson’s plans so far, with a mix of ideas and questions and some of his detailed sketches. I ask you, in the interests of professional respect, to treat these plans as appropriately patented, and not use them for your own financial benefit. But any help you can give us would be appreciated:
My Idea of a time machine is doubtful, but I’m still going to try.
I will need to get a wormhole from outerspace. I need to know physics and machanichs. I will bring back Tyranosaurus-Rex, dilaphosaurus, diplodicos, apatasaurus, ultrasaurus, velocirapter, and much more. I need lots of help. The Idea of the name of the zoo is “Jackson’s Dinos.” I will also try to have modern animals. I will have a plant house where prehistoric and modern plants will be on display. Under the zoo there will be a aquarium as big as the zoo and way deep. It will hold blue whales.
If the time machine does not work then I will do DNA. Three things block me in the time machine, getting wormhole and shrinking it, I don’t know if I’ll be able to get back, and I can’t reach the speed of light. I will have to grow a lot of plankton.
Another Idea of mine is a vase that half a corner high their will be a seal that has a hole in it. Dirt will go under the seal. You will plant in the vase. If I am succsessful on bringing back dinosaurs I will give some to the army to train.
Here’s a few questions: will we die out just like the dinosaurs? Will I be succsessful? Where will my zoo be? How old would humans live if there was no poulootion?
Another idea is make an animal that is both female and male like a plant. This is a picture of DNA. I will make a male and female together by putting in DNA from both of them. I wonder if I can munpulate energy and make it last forever. Another question. How to munpulate it? Here’s another Idea: Make a human lifespan much longer, to 800 years. Question: what will happen when undersea volcanoes destroy the seas? I wonder if I can make a animal that can do all the things the other animals can. What is a spider web made out of? How bout a flower that spits venom? I wonder if I can make paper without a tree. Maybe something that makes oxegen underwater.![]()

You might also look at Venus Fly-trap plants that trap flies and digest them with plant venom. Maybe they could spit the venom instead of just producing it inside their pods.
Also, plants and algae produce oxygen, so increasing all the plants underwater and growing extra algae might increase the oxygen available... just some thoughts to think about.
One question for you: how will you make sure the life cycles and food chains will stay stable with new animals in the environment?
