So I did some research myself and discovered that the "evidence" isn't actually Robb's. Apparently all the stuff I saw was compiled by a Queenslander named Ronald Pegg. And according to the National Library of Australia, Ronald Pegg wrote a book called Nostradamus Unsealed: the discoveries of Ronald Pegg. But that book was published by "Study Group, S. Aust", which sounds a lot like Robb published it. And another odd thing is that Robb sometimes lists his name as Eddy Pengelly depending on what website you're looking at. And in all the Eddy websites, Robb has a giant beard. And at this point I gave up.But the very last thing I discovered, is that the first actual written reference to time travel appeared in the Hindu story of King Raivata Kakudmi . The king briefly traveled to heaven to meet his creator, only to get home and discover millions of years had passed while he was out. And that story appeared in a Sanskrit poem known as the Mahabharata, which puts it at around 2800 years old. Not bad considering it alludes to Einstein's general theory of relativity. And so maybe Robb/Eddy/Ronald wasn't too far off.Follow Mat on Twitter.Like this article?
