NOTES

Title from title frames

At its core, relativity is about something very simple: how two people in relative motion see the world differently. In the first of two episodes on misunderstandings about relativity, explore the Lorentz transforms, then journey through a seeming paradox that disappears once you use the Lorentz transforms properly
