S11096: Special Relativity in Splash 2016 (Nov. 19 - 20, 2016)
Ever wonder why exactly people think Einstein is so smart? Come learn about special relativity, Einstein's first major theory. We'll learn what "relativity" really means (it doesn't mean that everything is "relative"!) We'll look at how time and space change and even come together, how this challenges normal physical intuition, and what relativity means for various paradoxes and research applications.


S11100: A Brief History of the Universe in Splash 2016 (Nov. 19 - 20, 2016)
You may have heard that the universe is 13.8 billion years old, but wait! First, how do we know it's 13.8 billion years old? Second, what happened in all that time between now and the Big Bang? We'll begin by talking about how the universe has qualitatively changed over time. Then, we'll start from some simple postulates and derive a series of simple but true mathematical models.
