Is time travel into the future possible? Are there really such bizarre objects that warp space and freeze time? What about wormholes and tunneling – are those possible? You bet! We’re going to take a sneak peek at the laws of physics that govern these and more in our adventure through relativity.


This laboratory for this unit is purely in your mind, the same way Einstein and Hawking do their experiments. Many people think that relativity (and quantum physics) is way too hard to comprehend. In fact, it doesn’t take an Einstein to understand these concepts at all. In fact, you already know about special relativity in your everyday life experience.


Here’s how:
