Theory of Relativity: Simplified

Galilean Relativity: Laying the Groundwork for Einstein’s Revolution


Listen Later

Before Einstein revolutionized our understanding of the universe, Galileo Galilei introduced the concept of relativity through his studies of motion. In this episode, we’ll dive into Galilean relativity, which explains that the laws of motion are the same in any constant motion frame, whether you’re on a moving ship or standing on solid ground. We’ll explore how Galileo’s principle of relative motion laid the foundation for Einstein’s special relativity. By the end of this episode, you’ll understand why Galileo’s simple yet powerful observations were crucial stepping stones toward one of the most groundbreaking theories in modern science
