An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

If the past and the present were connected within the same spacetime, you could theoretically travel back to the past and prevent your own birth, thus ceasing to exist. But if you did not exist, you could not have traveled back in time to prevent your birth in the first place, leading to a paradox. What would happen in such an event? The answer remains a mystery.
