Episode

The Forward time machine was a time machine invented by Professor Farnsworth. It is able to go forwards in time, but is unable to travel backwards. The professor, along with Fry and Bender were originally supposed to test drive it by going forward one minute. However, they accidentally ended up going forward 6 990 years. They are forced to use the machine to keep on going forward to find a backwards time machine, but ultimately end up at the end of all life.

The three of them find out that time works on a loop: when the universe ends, the Big Bang occurs and a completely identical universe is created. They use the machine to travel forward to the year 3010, but miss it. Finally, after time traveling the entire length of the universe's existence again, the machine makes it back to 3010.
