The Twins Paradox Primer (Rotating TIME!)

in #paradox8 years ago

 How can time be slower and faster at the same time? Thanks to http://www.audible.com/minutephysics for supporting MinutePhysics

This  video is about the famous “Twin paradox” of special relativity, and how  time can appear to be faster for two different observers at the same  time.
