Theory of Relativity: Simplified

Special Relativity: Time Dilation


Listen Later

What if time didn’t move at the same pace everywhere? In this episode, we explore time dilation, one of the most fascinating concepts in Einstein’s relativity. We’ll break down why time passes differently depending on your speed and proximity to massive objects, and what this means for objects moving near the speed of light. Imagine astronauts aging slower in space or clocks ticking differently on moving trains—these are real-life effects of time dilation. By the end, you’ll understand how time dilation influences GPS technology, space exploration, and even the passage of time in our daily lives.
