[For the entire collection, see Zbl 0878.00015.] The author discusses philosophical principles for constructing and operating a time machine. He shows that the modern theory of multidimensional pseudo-Riemannian spaces provides a proper mathematical tool for describing a time machine. The approach proposed is used for calculating the time ratio of a trip to the past measured by a traveller and by a universal clock. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0878.00015].
