[00:00.00] Say, do you like mystery stories?
[00:03.30] Well we have one for you.
[00:05.64] The concept: relativity. That strange fantastic relationship between time, distance, and mass.
[00:14.84] Before we're finished, I think you'll agree that truth is stranger than the strangest fiction.
[00:20.11] Why do the stars shine?
[00:22.37] Why does the galaxy light up?
[00:24.82] E equals MC squared
[00:28.12] That is the engine that lights up the stars
[00:33.26] Energy turns into mass
[00:37.24] E equals MC squared -
[00:39.99] That is the secret of the stars
[00:46.76] Now listen carefully:
[00:49.62] The faster you move
[00:51.53] THe heavier you get
[00:53.48] The energy of motion turns into M, your mass
[00:56.83] Energy of motion
[00:57.92] Energy equals Mass times the speed of light squared
[01:01.83] An awful lot of energy
[01:03.78] For a tiny amount of mass
[01:06.10] Light travels at the same speed
[01:08.10] No matter how you look at it
[01:10.30] No matter how I move, relative to you,
[01:12.20] Light travels at the same speed
[01:14.27] No matter who is doing the measurement
[01:16.30] And no matter what direction you are moving
[01:18.12] The speed of light is the same
[01:20.30] No matter what direction, or how fast
[01:22.45] As you travel faster
[01:24.53] Time slows down
[01:26.71] Everything slows down
[01:28.81] Time slows down when you move
[01:30.48] Time passes at a different rate
[01:32.73] Clocks run slow
[01:34.60] It's a monumental shift in how we see the world
[01:38.81] The beauty, the majesty,
[01:40.79] The power of the universe
[01:42.98] Into a single equation
[01:47.17] E equals MC squared -
[01:51.50] That is the engine that lights up the stars
[01:55.53] Energy turns into mass
[01:59.44] E equals MC squared -
[02:02.24] That is the secret of the stars
[02:04.21] It's a beautiful piece of science
[02:06.51] It's a beautifuly elegant theory
[02:08.53] It's a beautiful piece of science
[02:11.43] A planet like the Earth is kept in orbit
[02:13.29] Because it follows curves
[02:15.46] In the spatial fabric caused
[02:17.56] By the sun's presence
[02:19.70] Space and time are bent by stars and planets
[02:23.74] As things move through this curved space, they bend
[02:29.52] Now all of this is illustration of the fact
[02:31.74] that time and space are linked together.
[02:36.26] As you're moving through bent and curved space and time,
[02:40.46] You feel like you feel a force
[02:42.25] You feel like you feel a force
[02:43.99] As you're moving through bent and curved space and time,
[02:48.60] You feel like you feel a force
[02:50.59] That force is gravity
[02:52.41] The beauty, the majesty,
[02:54.62] The power of the universe
[02:56.64] Into a single equation
[03:00.91] E equals MC squared -
[03:04.80] That is the engine that lights up the stars
[03:09.13] Energy turns into mass
[03:13.28] E equals MC squared -
[03:15.68] That is the secret of the stars
[03:19.69] That is the secret of the stars
[03:23.75] That is the secret of the stars
[03:27.75] That is the secret of the stars
[03:32.30] That is the secret of the stars...
