Very nice visual illustration of relativity precented by renowned physicist and author Brian Greene. Don't miss from 4:00 onwards: ___________________________________ Colorful but I bet nobody knows what's really going on. It starts about keeping speed of light the same in both car and ground frame. But at 1:47 and 2:00 the video does not show very well how lightspeed is constant in the ground frame. At 2:15 it's really a big mess. But from 1:45 onwards the video does show that simultaneous arrivals in the car frame (green) are not simultaneous in the ground frame (dark blue): |

Simple but effective. At 0:45 the videos hows that distances of light from the observer do not remain the same, which means the speed of light does not stay constant. But at 1:06 they do: _____________________________________ Very nice visualization of 4D spacetime, from 4:20 onwards. |
