    Thought Experiment on the speed of light

    Haha, in fact, i guess you are always traveling "faster than light" if you assumed that we were still, and the stars just revolved around us every day. Of course that's not true, but it would seem that way.

    Thought Experiment on the speed of light

    Thanks, sorry about messing up the speed of light, pretty dumb mistake, i guess change meters to kilometers and now it works, OK, so nothing is actually traveling faster than the speed of light, because it is not the same photon hitting the wall in one direction as it is when i turn the laser...

    Thought Experiment on the speed of light

    OK, so I am not a physics major, but I think that I understand that matter or energy cannot travel faster than the speed of light. Today I was using a laser pointer, and I noticed that it traveled rather fast, and it traveled faster as it went farther away from me. So if you imagined the laser...
