A time traveler from the future has been arrested at the Large Hadron Collider. He was arrested after security guard caught him going through the trash looking for fuel for his 'time machine power unit', a device, CNET reports, "that resembled a kitchen blender." Tell that to Mr. Fusion.

Overdue explanations.
How Doc Brown and Marty McFly became friends.
What I'm really looking for, though, is an explanation of where Marty #2, from alternate-1985, gets sent at the end of Back to the Future part 1. My money's on a prehistoric wasteland.

Temporal lean
That's called science:
University of Aberdeen psychological scientists Lynden Miles, Louise Nind and Neil Macrae conducted a study to measure this in the lab. They fitted participants with a motion sensor while they imagined either future or past events. The researchers found that thinking about past or future events can literally move us: Engaging in mental time travel (a.k.a. chronesthesia) resulted in physical movements corresponding to the metaphorical direction of time. Those who thought of the past swayed backward while those who thought of the future moved forward.Bonus points to anybody who can use "chronesthesia" in a conference paper. Via BB.
