I believe CCP's latest news article is hinting towards time travel: http://community.eveonline.com/news/news-channels/world-news/sisters-of-eve-release-statement-on-caroliness-star-thera-incident-and-concord/
So basically the Caroline star is a gateway to the past!
It explains why the explosion and everything else was visible around all New Eden at the same time even in systems hundreds of light years away because the Caroline's star or gate now exists in the past too.
It also explains why the new ancient drifter battleships and the unknown structures are in perfect immaculate conditions because they time traveled from the past to now and as we thought they were cloaked but in fact those clouds and thunderstorms were visual time traveling anomalies.
Does that mean we might see more ancient race rats in future? Talocans, Tak mahl, Yan Jung etc
Maybe appearance of these new SOV holding forces in New Eden is to explain the upcoming changes to SOV holding ?
What are the Sisters of EVE trying to achieve here? guess we just have to wait and see. |

An experiment to revert time to a period when the EVE gate was open, gone horribly wrong? |

Caroline's Star is the EVE Gate, or rather, the other side of it. We goth trough Caroline's Star and end up thousands of years ago in New Eden without support, trying to establish civilizations.... you know the story after that.

It's still fun to answer assuming it's true.
However, I did also feel like it was jumping to a conclusion lol.

What happens after that is all the gankers run over there and set up camps to be the first to slaughter all the carebears they anticipate will come a-runnin' as volunteers to be victims. However, only gankers show up because their definition of a carebear leaves out one thing they themselves possess not - intelligence.
So, all the gankers in EVE meet for a huge gankfest but no victims show up. SO, they start in on each other. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on who you are,) no industrial types, or miners show up so nothing gets built. No new ships are built. No new ammo, mods....the last remaining gankers go batso trying to kill each other by pod bumping.
And...the new space is empty but for whatever denizens were there before our good citizens found out about the place. One day, someone will venture forth, collect all the wrecks, weld them all into one huge glob and call it a "monument."
Monumental, really.

It isn't the eve gate at all. However wormholes do travel through time and space. So the drifters may have entered from one which connected to the second Jove empire |

Umm.... yeah, because all the ships and structures we have from THIS time period don't look shiny and brand new. Clearly there is time travel involved.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.

TiDi is time travel. People in a system under TiDi are experiencing time flow slower than people outside it.

The next ship we get from CCP is either a DeLorean or a flying 4-6-0 steam locomotive.

I think CCP has very exciting things in store for us, but time travel is surely not one of them (I sure hope it ain't)
Why would we want to go to the past anyway? |

Even though I do not think Time travel is actually involved, your position for argument makes no sense. Our ships ARE shiny and new... but they were built in the last couple years.
The drifter battleships look brand-spanking new, but their lore is that they are ANCIENT designs, from either the 2nd Jovian Empire or even earlier. How ships from THOUSANDS of years ago are still brand spanking new is beyond me. Especially when, lore-wise, CCP have actually said that some fleets, particularly the armies of Amarr and Minmatar, are starting to show aged wear and tear.
The drifters are different because they have either freshly built using ancient ship designs (in which case, why would you even bother?) OR, if you do choose to follow this topic's idea, did they perhaps come through a time rift? |

The gist that I'm getting from that article is that CCP is trying to introduce a Type II civilization into the game's Type I technology level.
An entity destroyed Caroline's Star (and the shattered planets) for some specific purpose; it was not a natural phenomenon.
I'm not getting anything about time travel.
EDIT: A Type II civilization should scare us more than the Drifters' measly "super" weapon. |

EDIT: A Type II civilization should scare us more than the Drifters' measly "super" weapon. EDIT2: The lore they're trying to establish sucks from one point of view: the "universe" is apparently composed of several thousand star systems (all single star), with nothing else around them. A simple orbital telescope should be able to discover the shape of the galaxy surrounding the game's 5,000 stars, as well as the local cluster of galaxies, etc. Even if we're not in the Milky Way, even if we're in some globular star cluster that's much smaller than a full galaxy, the skybox should have some galaxy-shaped lights (not just stars), and some lore should exist about what the local environment looks like (at the galactic scale). It's like we're in some sort of pocket dimension. And it's considered "normal", none of the scientists are panicking about it. So, basically, with this type of background to the game, trying to introduce Type II civilizations or other "science" like that is meh. We might as well be obeying the spacetime rules in the universe containing the planet Azeroth.
Ahh, but you forget. The first colonists from earth and the people in the people who stayed back in the milky way didn't have any idea where the other side of the eve gate was located or if it was even part of the observable universe from the view of an earth based observer. Supposedly the stars on the other side didn't map to any previously known or observed sections of space anyone could come up with. This situation would only have gotten worse following the collapse and ensuring dark ages with their near total loss of all advanced human knowledge.
Sure, some pockets of advanced civilization and knowledge survived, but the four empires that players are part of are not part of those pockets. Pretty much everyone comes from a background in which almost all knowledge of and from earth is gone. this is true to such an extent that things like wolves are basically a distant mythical cultural memory that no one has even seen in what, twenty thousand years?
That being said, I agree that it would be super freaky if they don't actually have distant galaxies that they can observe in their night sky and it would be cool if that stuff was built on as I can't really imagine they're just a small cluster of stars floating in an empty void of nothing. If they were that would probably weird out their astrophysicists even if they had no memory of a universe that functioned differently. |

Or through the magic of a thing called storage...
Anyways - big No-No on the time travel please. Time travels raises more questions than it solves usually (see Terminator). Plus it's like a writer's get-out-of-jail card - "How do we solve this?" "Easy - we go back in time!" I sincerely hope CCP is not gonna take this path...
