How To Build A Time Machine

If you could travel through time, where — or when — would you go? Back to revisit a favourite childhood memory? Forward for a glimpse of what's coming? Or back far enough to change something in your past, even knowing it might change who you are today?

How To Build A Time Machine follows two men, each on his own quest to actually build one.

Rob Niosi is a stop-motion animator who has spent eleven years constructing a full-scale replica of the time machine prop from the 1960 film adaptation of H.G. Wells' The Time Machine.

Ron Mallett, a physicist at the University of Connecticut, was inspired by the same story — but his machine isn't a replica. Dr. Mallett believes he's worked out how to build one that actually works.
