RE: 💡 Did You Know? #2 - The Speed Of Light
I just love posts like these. It opens your mind to explore other possibilities. Like, what if you went a millionth of a percent faster than then speed of light? Would you then be able to see anything behind you? Because the light reflected to see objects wouldn't reach you.
Another thing: If you traveled faster than the speed of light, would you go back in time? As in, see events that happened in the past, since you overtake the light reflected by objects that took part in these events? I might be completely off the track here, but it's just some fun stuff to onder about. Very informative post!
Deep stuff, @dewet99! Would you like to try the speed of light yourself? At least going to the moon ;) I guess our minds can travel even faster than the speed of light. Thank you for your open-mindedness, mate!
Dude if I could travel at the speed of light, I'd literally... I was going to say visit other planets but I just remembered that you also said in your post some of the closer star systems are a few thousand/billion light years away. And spacesuits are expensive... But moving at that speed would be kinda fun. I'd be able to go home in between classes (home is around 3.5hrs from where I study) so it would be a pretty neat ability.
Keep making more of these science/physics based posts though.
You could go home in almost no time at all :) Will do, thank you for your support!
