i everyone! This is my time-travel page. From here, you can climb into my special Time Machine and whizz forward in time from the very beginnings of life, the universe and everything.
You'll find that the years flash by incredibly fast at first: like 1 billion years in less than 1 second. By the time you reach 10 million years ago, it takes just 10 seconds to travel forward to 1 million years. From 10,000 years to 1000 AD takes about 15 seconds. Another 1000 years forward from 1000 AD to 1900 is 25 seconds. It will take you about 1 second for each year to travel forward from 1990 to the present.

And you know what? If I didn't do it this way but instead allowed 1 second for every single year, it would take you an incredible 142 years to get back to the present from when our planet formed. I think you'd get bored before then...

So my Time Machine gets around this problem by using a special scale. This means that the further back in time you're travelling, the faster you'll go.

But I'm not all that clever; I'm not a Penguin Time Lord! Whoops... click here to see an earlier version of my Time Machine. It didn't work. I got stuck in last week and had to wait 7 days to get back!

Controlling my Time Machine: The controls are simple. Just hover your mouse over the Go Forward in Time button to start. As you see the years flicking past, you'll also see that I've put in all kinds of things that happened. You can Stop at any time and click something you want to know about and then continue on your journey.

You can also go instantly right to the present or back to the very beginning of time by clicking the green Hyperdrive up or down arrow. You'll get the controls sorted in no time (ha ha! Joke!)

It may surprise you to find that people are very very new on the planet, but the Earth is very very old.
