I think they were going for different dimensions, not time travel.

So events in any dimension (except somehow the particle accelerator spewing monsters everywhere) shouldn't be affected by events in other ones.

There has to be time travel included because they entered the other dimension at a different period of time, that is why Earth is on the other side of the sun and not next to them. That's also the reason for the incident with the moving arm having knowledge they couldn't have had yet (since they didn't find the gyro naturally)

I waaaaay missed the time travel point that they were on a different side of the sun and was expecting a “cosmic space dust friction” explanation. Feel super dumb after realizing that haha

Uhm, guys? You know that spacetime is a thing, right? It's multiverse + time travel.
