Based on my limited understanding of special relativity, as an object's velocity increases with respect to an observer the object undergoes spatial contraction (making it appear to the observer to get thinner in the direction of travel) and time dilation (so the observer would view the object's clock tick more slowly than the observer's, if he could see it). The object also gains relativistic mass, though, and I was wondering how, if it all, this would manifest to the observer?
