Missing relativity FAQ entries

AI Thread Summary
The links to Bell's spaceship paradox and relativistic mass in the relativity FAQ currently redirect to a black hole article due to their removal from the STEM learning materials section. The discussion suggests that these topics have been moved to the Insights section, raising concerns about accessibility. There is a preference for maintaining all FAQ entries in one location rather than removing them entirely. One participant plans to fix the broken links to direct users to the relevant Insights articles. Overall, the focus is on improving access to important relativity topics.

The links to Bell's spaceship paradox and relativistic mass in the relativity FAQ lead to the black hole. I see the articles have been removed from the STEM learning materials section.

I assume this has got to do with their being relegated to the Insights section.

Perhaps fixing the link, so that it leads to the appropriate Insights article would be in order.

A complete removal of the entry from the pinned post in the relativity section would be an alternative - but personally I'd rather see all the FAQ entries accessible from one place.

Indeed, FAQs are being moved to insights. I am not sure I would call this a relegation, I think nobody was able to find them in the STEM Learning Materials forum ...
 
I will be fixing those links today, thanks
 

Thread 'Thank you to mentors, advisors and members'

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
