When you return to reality after making the time travel jump, which in the alternate reality can last for decades, the return to the real world is a challenge. After decades of existing with no danger the real world is a challenging experience. The time traveler though has a mind that is capable of comprehending two different realities. Even though the time traveler existed in a non-real world for decades, and the time traveler retains memory of that existence in the very realistic non-real world, the time traveler will resume the mindset he possessed before he makes the time travel jump.

THE RIGHT STUFF
YOU TALKING
TO US, BUDDY?
ALL AIR FORCE PILOTS
GO IN THAT DOOR.
WHEN THEY ALL GO IN,
THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME.
BUT WHEN THEY
ALL COME OUT,
THEY ALL LOOK DIFFERENT.
HOW'S THAT?
FELLA,
I SAID, HOW'S THAT?
WHEN THEY ALL COME OUT...
THEY ALL LOOK SCARED.
BUENOS DIAS, GONZALES.
YEAH. BUENAS DIAS,
YOURSELF.
WOULD YOU
COME THIS WAY?
THAT GUY DOESN'T
FOOL ME A BIT.
YOU MEAN
THAT MEXICAN GUY?
THAT GUY'S NAVY
ALL THE WAY.
http://www.angelfire.com/movies/closedcaptioned/rightstuff-s.txt
THE RIGHT STUFF
TELL ME
SOMETHING ELSE,
MR. GONZALES.
HOW AM I DOING?
I THINK
YOU'LL MAKE IT.
I THINK YOU'RE GOING
TO BE AN ASTRONAUT.

THE RIGHT STUFF
AT SECRET LOCATIONS
THROUGHOUT AMERICA,
56 PILOTS ARE
AT THIS VERY MOMENT
VYING TO BE CHOSEN
AS ONE OF THE FIRST MEN
TO GO INTO SPACE.
THESE ARE THE MOST
MODERN TESTS IMAGINABLE,
THIS IS THE MOST RIGOROUS
PHYSICAL TESTING
EVER DONE
TO HUMAN BEINGS.
THEY'RE BEING SUBJECTED
TO EVERY KIND OF STRESS
OUR DOCTORS AND
ENGINEERS CAN INVENT.
THESE MEN ARE
PREPARING THEMSELVES
FOR THE ORDEAL
OF CAPSULE LIFE.
THEY'LL BE
GUIDING A NEW MACHINE
THROUGH A STRANGE
AND HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT.
THEY WILL
FACE EMERGENCIES
NO MAN CAN FORESEE.
MANY ARE CALLED,
BUT FEW WILL BE CHOSEN.
http://www.angelfire.com/movies/closedcaptioned/rightstuff-s.txt
THE RIGHT STUFF
I DON'T GET THIS--
SENDING US HERE
ON A BUS DISGUISED
AS CIVILIANS.
COME ON, GUS,
CUT IT OUT.
THIS OPERATION'S
SUPPOSED TO BE
HUSH-HUSH.
WE GOT
TOP-SECRET ORDERS
TO BLEND IN
WITH THE PATIENTS,
SO SHUT UP,
WILL YOU?
THERE MIGHT BE
RUSSIAN AGENTS HERE.
THEY DON'T LOOK
VERY RUSSIAN TO ME, GUS.
ALL WE GOT HERE
IS YOUR LOCAL GENTRY.
THEN YOU GOT YOUR NAVY
AND MARINE PILOTS OVER HERE.

After they released me from the VA last year, I stumbled around in that senior citizens home, trying to find something to do, the very first magazine I picked up to read was a National Geographic edition from 1981 that described STS-1.
