... In 1991, physicist David Deutsch said he knew how to fix paradoxes caused by CTCs. He said the answer was at the tiniest quantum level. The key was fundamental particles, like quarks which are inside protons. Physicists believe fundamental particles are the smallest parts of matter. Now, they may b ...
