Is that a ship or an ore deposit? And here I was thinking that 60mm of laminated steel angled back by 85 degrees was enough to be "tanky".

How would you react to this?

ok everybody stop for a second

what source are they quoting? is it a rumor? is it the 1st of april in some place of the world yet?

ok really dumb physics question here.

According to special relativity, if we have two inertial reference frames, say K and K', and K' is moving with a velocity v with respect to K, and there is a clock in each frame, then an observer in K would see that time would be slower in K'.

But, since K is moving with velocity -v according to an observer in K', then an observer in K' would see that time is slower in K too, right?

So why if I go and take a space trip moving at almost c, I'd age slower than folks on Earth? Wouldn't Earth be moving at an almost -c velocity with respect to my spaceship? What the fuck am I missing here?

Oh man you guys

So, what features would you like in your new penis?
