Time and space are not what they seem...
Relativity revolutionized our understanding of the universe, and is crucial for understanding high-speed phenomena and gravitational forces.
Explore the principles of special relativity, including time dilation, length contraction, and relativity of simultaneity.
Understand how time appears to pass slower for an observer in motion relative to a stationary observer.
Learn how objects appear shorter to an observer in motion relative to a stationary observer.
Delve into the principles of general relativity, including gravitational redshift, geodesics, and curvature of spacetime.
Understand how gravity affects the frequency of light, causing it to shift towards the red end of the spectrum.
Learn about the shortest paths possible in curved spacetime, and how they relate to gravity.
Visualize spacetime as a fabric that's warped by massive objects.
This analogy helps to illustrate the curvature of spacetime and the effects of gravity.
Special relativity deals with objects moving at constant speeds, while general relativity includes gravity and its effects on spacetime.
