Why Time Breaks When You Go Faster Than Light
Manage episode 518170626 series 2914294
If you could somehow go faster than light, time would basically break. According to Einstein’s theory of relativity, the faster you move, the slower time moves for you compared to everyone else. But if you somehow went faster than light, all the math goes crazy — time could start running backward or even stop making sense completely. You might arrive somewhere before you even left, which sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. Scientists say it’s pretty much impossible with what we know now, but it’s still fun (and mind-bending) to think about. Basically, the universe has some serious rules to keep things from getting way too weird!
