Let's say you have to travel back in time and make the biggest impact with your scientific knowledge. To which time period would you travel and what would you do?
 
Keep in mind you can't just expect people to believe you and listen to you. So no bullshit like telling Hitler how to build a nuke.
 
Some more food for thought:
- You might be infinitely smarter than a cave man, but knowing how to make steel or rotate crops will not help you archive much on you own.
 
- You won't be able to impress anyone with your knowledge of advanced math or laws of physics if you can't prove them and defend against actual smart people of their time.

I'd travel back to Nazi Germany and teach Hitler to build a nuke xD

Personally I think it would be very hard to make much of an impact. Of course I could try to invent the steam engine. But the reality is, no one invented it 100 years before it was invented because there was no use for it.
 
So my best bet would be making "discoveries" long before they were made. Like penicillin or gun powder. But I have to actual idea how to do that for real. lol

Hilter: So, how do you build a nuke?
You: Well you put uranium or plutonium in a centrifuge or something lol

I wouldn't disclose anything, as that would expose the people of that era to the crimes of their grandchildrens future.
Instead, I would go and learn the language and assimilate as best as I can to live a better life than now and impregnate a lot of women.

I would teach the germans how to properly encrypt texts so the Zimmermann telegramm doesn't get decoded by the brits and USA doesn't join the fight against us in ww1.

Why would they trust you? Sounds like you are a spy.

I will travel to Athens in the mid 400s BC and show em how to make a printing press, after that (already having become famous) Iwould teach them better military drill, such as how to march in step and make orderly maneuvers, so they would win the Peloponnesian War

I'd travel to 10 years ago and tell myself to buy bitcoin.

I suppose it is tricky because whilst I have a lot of knowledge about how things work, I don't really have the hands on skill to actually make a lot of things.
