Theory of Relativity: Simplified

Relativity and Santa: How Reindeer Fly and Santa Travels at Light Speed


Listen Later

Ever wondered how Santa delivers gifts to billions of homes in just one night? In this special holiday episode, we use physics to decode the magic of Santa Claus. We’ll explore how reindeer might fly, the energy Santa would need to travel at near-light speed, and the role of time dilation in giving him more hours than we experience. From relativistic effects to sleigh aerodynamics, we’ll blend humor and science to answer the age-old question: how does Santa do it? Get ready to celebrate the holidays with a touch of Einstein and a sprinkle of Christmas cheer.
