I understand General and Special Relativity. I understand String Theory (well ... I understand it was well as it can be understood). Hell, I understand M-Theory. But for all that this little nugget about time itself bending to accommodate Einstein's constant ... No matter how much I understand it, it's just not intuitive. Every time I try to explain it I have to stop and think to get it straight in my head.

This is the true genius of Einstein: the physics of today is far more complex and intricate than anything in Relativity, but noone has made an intuitive leap as oblique as this before or since. Even decades after this revelation, after those of us of my generation being taught this at school, after physicists confirming the central idea of Relativity over and over and over again, even when we all fully understand it, still this is not an intuitive piece of science for anyone but the great man himself. All the great scientists since him have been brilliant, but none had the genius of Einstein: to be able to intuit what others could not imagine.

I don't buy it but I see how this could make sense.

Good simple explanation

time travel would be tight, but you would have to watch out for those biff tannen's

I think I would love to time travel. As scientists learn more and quantum physics is explored it shows us that being on a spiritual path makes a lot of sense.

I have a kid who wants to time travel. This is an interesting glimpse at Dr. Einstein's theory of relativity and how time travel might happen.

Really cool way of explaining things

Simple elegant explanation. Too bad we can only go forward in time. So in star trek and all those shows where they explode off in some direction seemingly going a couple lightyears in speed, are they then missing years of what's happening around them?

From the page: "Here is a little clip of how time travel can occur. The clip was taken from: The World's First Time Machine. Dr Ronald Mallett"
