in the year 2014, we know loads.. we can carbon date things, and look at fossils and work out all sorts of stuff, and the internet just tells us everything.
In the year 3000 we are just getting things back to normal after the great religious war.... not many left, but enough to carry on..
In the year 4120, science has, "every answer", time, space and quantum physics is simply Ee2 = M/E * CeC
In 4345 time travel is de rigueur....so, why hasn't anyone from the 44th century visited me today?
Bear with you ?
What makes you so confident we will make it another thousand years, lets assume if our species survives long enough we will be able to time travel.
The fact no one has come back shows either we have died off, destroyed ourselves or been wiped out by an global catastrophe.
or
We have evolved to the point where we are totally morally good and don't abuse the technology in such a manner/it's properly tightly regulated so no one can.
or
Every time travel backwards creates a paradox and a new universe that we don't exist in.
Just a few examples of why we wouldn't see time travellers walking around like tourists.
