Well, no real point really. Other than a thought experiment in which an object/construct would "defy gravity" if somehow managed to be set up in an impossibly specific way; one which would result in the planet enacting an equal distribution of gravitational force and thus counter balancing the...

Right? Haha. I can't see how it would serve a purpose, but man... this idea is such a mind f*ck. Doesn't seem right, but it has to be.

Okay so to start, this is just about the most random inapplicable proposal ever, so bear with me. Its just a cool question to consider. So, here goes: What would happen, (again, this is highly theoretical) in the instance that an enormous screen - much like the ones that rests behind most...

No universal velocity? Then what about relative to us? We know how fast the Earth rotates and have measured how fast we orbit the sun (deciphered through earthly units of measure) Are you saying that adding these two sums together is not rational because they do not affect each other in the least?

So what you're saying is without something to be compared side to side with said velocity, it might as well be zero because there is NOTHING to inform of otherwise. Acceleration and directional variance is all that matters? Doesn't that seem to be lacking somewhat? I mean, isn't there a reason...

Velocity relative to ALL the velocities that are influencing our temporal perception, of course. You may not be able to discern velocities, but you definitely experience them in one way or another. Imagine if physicists used atomic clocks to measure precise variations in time passage (with our...

Answer is simple... FAST and SLOW are synonymous terms in this instance, due to relativity. Stella (aboard the ship) appears to be slowed down to Terrance, but ONLY because the rate at which SHE is experiencing time has been sped up compared to him (think about it, high speed camera captures...

I am basically a novice in the field of physics, but I had this odd realization not too long ago. I'll begin simply... Isn't there a way to work backwards, canceling out ALL influential velocities that we experience with the use of a formula, to test the accuracy of the time dilation theory...
