(via Minute Physics) This video is chapter 2 in my series on special relativity, and it covers spacetime diagrams, rotational and translational symmetry of both time and space, how certain ...

We've all heard of relativity, but what is it? How does it relate to light and motion? So we've all heard of relativity, right? But... what is relativity? And how does it relate to light? And motion?

(via Minute Physics) This video covers the General theory of Relativity, developed by Albert Einstein, from basic simple levels (it's gravity, curved space) through to the concepts of how curved ...

Special relativity is beyond weird. Among its many statements are that moving clocks run slow and that moving rulers shrink. But how are we supposed to make sense of this? When you purchase through ...

Einstein’s special relativity, which he formulated in his “miracle year” of 1905, was a theory that revolutionised our ideas of space and time – and ultimately paved the way for some even bigger ...

In Newtonian physics, space and time had their independent identities, and nobody ever got them mixed up. It was with the theory of relativity, put together in the early 20th century, that talking ...

Gravitational physics has become a truly experimental science as tests of the special and general theories of relativity reach new levels of precision Right on time When I was a first-term graduate ...

Einstein’s famous tenet of special relativity — that time slows down on a moving clock — has been verified 10 times more precisely than ever before. The result comes from physicists in Germany and ...
