There is nothing in the laws of physics as we understand them that prohibits you finding a time machine if one was pre-existing. The chronology to protect protection conjecture is not the reason to believe you can't build time machines, it just summarizes the fact that every time we try to make one, or at least think about making one,. It sort of never works. There's always something wrong to them. And usually the thing that's wrong with them is that they violate something called the null energy condition that we believe is being viable. So, but there's not, there can't be a mathematical proof. There's just, according to thelaws of physics, we understand them. One
