People all have their own ideas of what a timernmachine would look like. If you are a fan of the 1960 movie version of H. G. Wells's classic novel, it would be a steampunk sled with a red velvet chair, flashing lights, and a giant spinning wheel on the back. For those whose notions of time travel were formed in the 1980s, it would be a souped-up stainless steel sports car. Details of operation vary from model to model, but they all have one thing in common: When someone actually travels through time, the machine ostentatiously dematerializes, only to reappear many years in the past or future. And most people could tell you that such a time machine would never work, even if it looked like a DeLorean.

机译：人们对timernmachine的外观都有自己的想法。如果您是1960年电影H. G. Wells的经典小说的迷，那将是一个带有红色天鹅绒椅子，闪烁的灯光和背面巨大的纺车的蒸汽朋克雪橇。对于那些在1980年代形成时差旅行观念的人来说，它将是一款功能强大的不锈钢跑车。不同模型的操作细节各不相同，但是它们都有一个共同点：当某人实际穿越时空时，机器表面虚化，仅在过去或未来的许多年中重新出现。而且大多数人会告诉您，即使看起来像DeLorean，这样的计时机也永远无法工作。
