Graduate If you were traveling in a spaceship that had a velocity JUST under light speed
Ok, makes sense. So from the runners point of view would he appear to be running normally or slowed- CombustionMan

Graduate If you were traveling in a spaceship that had a velocity JUST under light speed
If you were in a spaceship that was going JUST under light speed & you ran forward... If you were in a spaceship that was traveling JUST under light speed & you ran forward towards the front of the Spaceship, what would happen? I'm talking literally JUST under c, like 0.999999999999999999999...- CombustionMan

Graduate If two trains traveling at 0.5c collide head on
I think I understand, so since they are traveling through "stretched" time their relative velocities go below 1c?- CombustionMan

Graduate If two trains traveling at 0.5c collide head on
What would happen? These two trains are on the same tracks moving at constant velocities towards each other (0.5c --> and <--0.5c I guess) so what would happen? Since all motion is relative and no mass can travel at the speed of light something else must happen instead of a light speed head-on...- CombustionMan

If you were on a perfectly flat plane
..that went an infinite distance in all directions: What would it look like? Would you technically be able to see all (or a lot) of it? (speed of light permitting) It's just a question that has been bugging me for a while.- CombustionMan
