Have you ever seen the movie Interstellar and wondered how Matthew McConaughey stayed so incredibly young while his daughter aged? Despite the movie being science fiction, this effect is actually real and stems from Einstein’s Theory of Special Relativity. This course is all about this, but without calculus! We will go over what special relativity is and how none of us are truly standing still. We will also introduce Einstein’s Two Postulates of Relativity and the three effects that come from this: the “rear clock ahead” phenomenon, time dilation, and length contraction. You do not need any previous experience in physics or high-level math for this. Be prepared for lots of clocks and trains!
