If you were to follow the principles of Einstein’s theory of relativity, then theoretically it is indeed possible to stop time…you just have to travel at the speed of light.
So what would happen if you managed to do that? Well, if you were inside a spaceship traveling at the speed of light, you won’t notice any difference, but time would actually stop for you completely compared to people outside your spaceship. Strange, but true.
In reality however, traveling at the speed of light (for an object with mass) means that you will also have infinite mass…this is not achievable unfortunately so we can’t stop time in this way.
I hope this makes some sense. Feel free to ask a follow-up question for more details 🙂
