How can you travel into the future and why cant you travel to the past? (physics)

by going the speed of light, everything around you moves faster which technically means you age less than you should have over time (although you'd have to be traveling at the speed of light).

one cannot change the past as it has already happened,

What creates the northern lights and how?

solar winds push charged particles from the sun towards earth. the charged particles are guided by the earth's magnetic field and the particles interact with the atmospheric particles they excite the electrons in these atmospheric atoms and they release mass amounts of photons that give off different flavours of visible light when releasing energy absorbed

why might the vena cavae and the aorta be considered "best friends" in a sense?

because they are the beginning and end points, pumping in and out blood. both having opposite but equally important roles in the human body

In 2003, in Belgium there was an election using electronic voting machines. Mysteriously one candidate summed an excess of 4096 votes.
the excess votes were caused by a flip in a single digit of binary code, from a 0 to a 1.
propose how this might have happened in relevance to elementary particle studies. (physics)

it was caused by a single neutrino, a particle that is so small it can pass by atoms, this neutrino in specific interacted with a voting machine in Belgium and slightly changed the property of a single atom which flipped a 0 to a 1.
