So I just recommend that book of his. Okay. Time Travel and Einstein's Universe.
Neil deGrasse Tyson · StarTalk Radio · Nov 2025 Listen at 28:20 Why people recommend it
Time Travel in Einstein's Universe by J. Richard Gott explores the theoretical physics of time travel, detailing how Albert Einstein's theory of relativity can theoretically be utilized to journey both forward and backward in time. On StarTalk Radio, Neil deGrasse Tyson frequently recommended the book when answering listener questions regarding the scientific feasibility of time travel, black holes, and cosmic anomalies. Tyson praised the work as an accessible guide to complex astrophysical concepts and explicitly urged his audience to read it. During a dedicated conversation with J. Richard Gott III on the podcast, Tyson also referenced the book to explore self-consistent physics solutions and the mechanics of temporal displacement. Through these discussions, the podcast highlighted the book's value in translating dense relativistic physics into engaging concepts for space enthusiasts and curious listeners alike.

“So Rich Gott wrote a book called Time Travel in Einstein's Universe.”
“you talk about this in your book yeah time travel in Einstein's Universe”
“plus uh Rich of God has a book called time travel in Einstein's Universe oh which are the way can use relativity to engage not only forward but also backwards time traveling”
