Syed Alman No, light doesn’t get an acceleration. That is one of the reasons why time isn’t absolute. Think about a train passing by and inside the box car, you see a young boy who throws a ball up that hits the ceiling. The ball travels the up and down distance, but also travels the forward motion of the train. So from the outside perspective, the ball takes the path of an upside down V. But the boy inside the car experiences the ball traveling a shorter distance because he doesn’t see the ball traveling forward with the train, he only experiences the ball traveling up and then back down. However, both see the ball landing back in the boys hand at the exact same time. Now take the exact same scenario, except imaging a beam of light is reflected off the ceiling and back down. The boy sees the light traveling up and down. The outsider sees the light traveling up, down, and forward with the train. But remember, unlike the ball, the speed of light is constant. It doesn’t get a boost from the forward motion of the train. So from the outsider perspective, the light travels a greater distance. Both people witness the exact same event, but the event takes longer for the outsider....therefore, less time has passed for the person inside the train.
No. The thing you need to understand about light is that the photon doesn't accelerate to the speed of light when it's created. It EXISTS at that speed. The moment a photon is emitted by whatever process, it already has that speed.
I love Dr. Thailler. She is so good at making physics more exciting than it already is. That's one celestial body I would like to see.
Paperclip: I am the eater of stars, the extinguisher of light! Tremble mortals, TREMBLE!
Gravity wins. It wins so much that if one where to get into a fight with it, they have lost before the fight even started.
Star: I fear no man...but that...thing (iron)......it scares me
Iron is like grass for a star, not nutritious but definitely not poison
Iron: Woah... Where am I
Star: AAAAAHHHH
So exactly how much iron would you need to dump into a star to cause a supernova?
i know one of my classmates will read this most likely justice nice job studying for the test on thursday
1:20 ...not true, a hypernova is far more powerful, by many orders of magnitude.
Not to mention what it leaves behind, cause a neutron star will be the least of your worries when a hypernova leaves behind a black hole
"And We SENT DOWN iron..." (Quran translation of 57:25)
Can light get an acceleration if supernova explosion

I always enjoy this part of the episode.
Iron cannot be fused, once a star begins to produce iron the star will die...
starkiller base omg #spoilerinos
😂😂 And you are alive now because of that iron .... So don't run your mouth
Holy Fuck... So if i throw my paper clip towards sun and it somehow catches it.. RIP? :(
