Which is also the same reason why most time machines don't fling you 20 miles into space for every second you move through time, which would be the realistic result of traveling through time and not space, because the planet is rocketing through space at ridiculous speeds, and won't BE wherever it is you arrive WHEN you arrive. Unless the time machine in question is so sophisticated that it can somehow compensate and move you through space as well as time. Or if it's magic.


idk, I believe in the creed: "Not where, when." >_>

At any rate, kinda curious if any scifi has addressed that concept by only allowing the traveler to return to certain times in history when the planet is in perfect sync with the same location in the current time.
