My wild guess, is that time travel isn't possible, Surely we aren't at a point in our understanding of physics yet to be real sure either way.

Some of the greatest minds in 20th & 21st century physics have argued over this, sometimes switching sides every now and then.

However, The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics seems to discourage time travel. Though, it is not fair, to say physicists fantasize about time travel out of a fear of mortality, Time travel is a metaphor for a real phenomenon.
