	Session 5 initially looks at time travel, however, that is not the real aim of this session. The overriding theme is that of {{tag\|models}} and the {{tag\|scientific method}}. It aims to show students that it is OK to get a result that doesn't fit with what you expect, as it just means you need to change what you expect next time!		Session 5 initially looks at time travel, however, that is not the real aim of this session. The overriding theme is that of {{tag\|models}} and the {{tag\|scientific method}}. It aims to show students that it is OK to get a result that doesn't fit with what you expect, as it just means you need to change what you expect next time!
	\|Learning Objectives=By the end of the session students should be able to:<br />• Appreciate the limits put in time travel by Einstein's general relativity,<br />• Appreciate that time is relative and that each of us will measure it slightly differently.<br />• Appreciate that relativity and QM do not fully fit together.<br />• Understand why this is OK, as it merely means our models are not currently perfect.
