For the first time, physicists have simulated what objects moving near the speed of light would look like — an optical ...

“If you wanted to take a picture of the rocket as it flew past, you would have to take into account that the light from ...

Brian Haidet] published on his AlphaPhoenix channel a laser beam recorded at 2 billion frames per second. Well, sort of. The catch? It’s only a one pixel by one pixel video, but he repeats ...

In 1959, physicists James Terrell and Roger Penrose (Nobel laureate in 2020) independently concluded that fast-moving objects should appear rotated. However, this effect has never been demonstrated.

Join us as we dive into the electrifying world of Geometry Dash with "Speed of Light SYNC." Experience the thrilling synergy ...

Imagine future smartphones and computers that run on light instead of electricity—making them faster, more efficient, and ...

Here is a thought experiment for you: imagine shining a powerful laser at the moon, the beam cutting through space until it lands on its dusty grey surface. Now flick the laser so the spot of light ...

When I was a teenager, I was—shockingly, I know—deeply nerdy. At a science-fiction convention, I bought a button that read, “186,282 miles/second: Not just a good idea, it’s the law.” It was poking ...

Everyone on Earth would clock you at the speed of light, but from your reference frame, time would completely stop. That's because the "clocks" measuring time are in two different places going vastly ...
