LOST time travel plausible

Anyone get a little lost on the whole Desmond time travel thing wondering if it's even possible?

I turned to a website I never thought I'd turn to for LOST-related stories: Popular Mechanics.

The fine folks at Popular Mechanics interviewed Dr. Michio Kaku, author of “Physics of the Impossible” and explains that the science behind Dez's trip is kinda sorta feasible:

Unlike deadly black holes, traversable wormholes could make a condition such as Desmond’s feasible if the portals that skip time and space without an event horizon were ever discovered, Kaku says...To open the wormhole, you need large amounts of energy. In principle, if you could harness the energy of a star, you might be able to bend time into a pretzel, but we are talking about astronomical amounts of energy.

So there you have it folks. It isn't not possible -- it's plausible!

In other related news, the science of invisible portable cabins is still under investigation.
