    It's still mind-boggling to me to think that the speed of light is constant, even for observers of relatively varied velocities. Time dilation, just like the General Relativity explanation of gravity as, rather than a pull force, a curvature of spacetime, sounds a lot more like philosophy than science. However, when predictions deduced from these theories consistently produce comporting results, I'm left in awe of just how amazingly complex and mystifying the universe is.

    This sounds like the type of topic that would highly interest Kizmet as well :wavey: I'd love to hear her thoughts.
