31.1 Intuition and Dilation: A Math Approach

    • Time is not seen as a dimenson by everybody (not even by Einstein himself, if memory serves). This makes the “diversion”-idea quite troublesome (or awkward). Even the “diversion” thought itself doesn’t make things any transparent: Given space dimensions, a time “dimension” is necessarily something entirely different and cannot be compared 1 to 1.

      • I don’t think you need the concept of time dimension here nor the two dimensional car example here. The equation is simply saying “as I see your motion through space increase I see your motion through time decrease”. Decreasing motion through time is precisely the concept of time dilation.

    • This is like a moment of Wow, for me.

    • Spacetime as an invariant with boundaries on causality and therefore also on effect.

      Where Einsteinians improved upon Newtonian and Galilean limits.

      Light like separations, therefore boundaries on light.

      Asª (a=2) = spacetime invariant, but the first leg of the capital A needs removal.- device limits.

      Life of a sad device? 🙄😷
