Some thoughts

We do live in a "time machine" that travels into the future - using common terminology.

You want a mechanical or electronical device that sends you through time, but time, future or past is only a concept based on our existence here and now - following our path through space - to there and then.

If we invent a time machine that works to your liking, it would work to your liking and send us around in any direction and to any event. Your question is a paradox.

If there exists a parallel universe, or even multiple ones and if we were able to get access, there is no guarantee it or they would be a copy of our universe just in different timeframes behind or ahead of us.

The longer a universe exists, the more random events occur. I guess this would be true in any more or less consimilar recognizable universes. A second later the bus would have hit the tree, you know. And that planet would have hit that star...

Two people in the same universe, exactly one year apart?
Wouldn't this make them simply of different age?

If someone from a non existent future jumps into our timeframe to a certain location and someone who started yesterday and traveld through time - maybe even at normal speed (!) - to this exact same location - and both try to conquer suddenly the exact same space?

This must be the moment my wife understands the offside rule, I guess.

Joke aside, I don't know why you doubt it. You and me - from our timeframe - can't conquer the exact same space. Wherever we go, we push the surrounding media away. Radiation waves float though us, but I think they conquer only empty space between our atoms.

A moment is the description of the location of every object - no matter how small or huge - in the universe. If you alter this description, it would not be that moment any more.

Assume it's like a photo shot.

And this leads us to a kind of "time machine". You want to manipulate a moment in the past? Photoshop is the closest thing to a time machine we have. It manipulates the conservation of a moment in time, but doesn't have to destruct the original.

Remember, this knowlege is only theory. At least for those of us who didn't jump though time.
