If you go back in time to when your grandfather was a kid and kill him, then your parents will have never been born, and you wouldn't have been born which means that you couldn't have killed your grandfather which means he would be alive so you would kill your grandfather and on and on and on..... wordy I know, but it's hard to explain
One example of a paradox is the "liar paradox," which states "this statement is false." Another example is the "grandfather paradox," where a time traveler goes back in time and prevents their grandfather from meeting their grandmother, thus preventing the time traveler's own existence.
Sure! Here are a few examples of paradoxes: The liar paradox: "This statement is false." The grandfather paradox: If you went back in time and prevented your grandfather from meeting your grandmother, would you still exist? The unexpected hanging paradox: A judge tells a prisoner he will be hanged at noon on one weekday in the next week, but the hanging will be a surprise - can the prisoner be sure he won't be hanged?
A time paradox or an ontological paradox is something based on time travel that should not have occurred because the past had been changed, rendering it impossible for that event to occur. For instance, John hates his grandfather and goes back in time to kill him, but his parents had not been conceived at the time of his death. Therefore, his parents should not exist, and he should not exist. He could not have gone back in time to kill his grandfather after all. John might discover that the man he had killed was not his grandfather, or the entire universe might collapse as a result of the paradox. There are also some other finite paradoxes, or closed loops that space does not allow to permit.
The statement "less is more" is a paradox because it combines two contradictory ideas. The grandfather paradox is a hypothetical situation where someone could potentially travel back in time and prevent their own existence, creating a paradox because their existence would be both necessary and impossible at the same time. The liar paradox is a statement such as "this statement is false," which creates a contradiction when considering its truth value.
It is an impossibility were something that stops an event which results that made the stopping event not stop it, so the event happens so it makes it stop itself in a never ending cycle,and my guess to what would happen is better than yoursThe below paradox is called a Logical paradox because it deals with truth and contradiction. Many logical paradoxes are variations on Russel's Paradox, a key concept in advanced logic and set theory. Most people know it through the Barber paradox or the Liar's paradox, as seen belowA paradox is simply a statement (or event) that contradicts itself.For example, take the statement 'I always lie'. If this is a true statement (ie the speaker DOES always lie) then the statement must be false because he would be lying when he made the statement! So the true statement is false and vice versa.An event paradox describes an event that again contradicts itself. The most famous is the 'Grandfather paradox': The paradox is this:Suppose a man traveled back in time and killed his biological grandfather before his grandfather met the traveller's grandmother. As a result of this event, one of the traveller's parents (and therefore the traveller himself) would never have been conceived or born. This would suggest that he could not have travelled back in time after all, because he didn't exist having never been born. But if this happened, this in turn implies the grandfather would still be alive, and the traveller would have been conceived, allowing him to travel back in time and kill his grandfather. But if he killed his grandfather..... and so it repeats itself.Thus each possibility seems to contradict itself.
no, not a person in the universe

The Grandfather paradox has to do with time. Assuming you could travel back in time, if you kill your own grandfather before you were born, you wouldn't be alive to go back in time to kill your grandfather.Thismeans, logically, that time travel, backwards in time,could be impossible.
the fermi paradox is most important. This paradox explains us many things.

no, it is definitely not possible and therefore nothing to worry about when time travelling

No. Time machines most definitely do not work. See the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and the Grandfather Paradox.
Paradoxes are statements or situations that seem self-contradictory or illogical but may actually be true or have a valid explanation. They challenge our understanding of logic and can lead to interesting philosophical discussions. Examples include the "liar paradox" and the "grandfather paradox."
