Yes, you are correct. According to the principles of special relativity, traveling at very high velocities relative to an observer can result in time dilation, which means that time appears to pass more slowly for the moving object compared to the stationary observer.
This effect is known as time dilation and is a consequence of Einstein's theory of special relativity. It arises because as an object approaches the speed of light, its relative velocity causes a stretching or slowing down of time from the perspective of a stationary observer.
For example, if a person were to travel in a spaceship at a significant fraction of the speed of light, then return to Earth, they would have experienced less time passing compared to someone who remained on Earth. From the perspective of the person on the spaceship, they may feel as though they have traveled to the future.
However, it's important to note that this type of time travel is relative and asymmetric. It only affects the traveler's perception of time compared to observers in different reference frames. The forward time travel effect in this scenario does not allow someone to travel back in time or have the ability to interact with the past.
Additionally, achieving velocities close to the speed of light requires an enormous amount of energy, and there are practical limitations that make this form of time travel currently impossible for macroscopic objects like humans or spaceships.
So while relativistic effects can create a difference in the perception of time, true "time travel" as commonly understood, involving traveling to the past or future at will, remains a topic of speculation and has not been demonstrated in a way consistent with our current understanding of physics.
