Something interesting for everyone to have a look at - some videos which effectively slow down the speed of light so we can interpret relativistic effects. It makes for some bewildering yet cool viewing. :)

It requires a Quicktime plugin, which should be easily gettable for Firefox (or IE, if your patience hasn't yet expired with it), if you don't already have it - http://www.free-codecs.com/download/quicktime_alternative.htm. (Fedora 13 had the plugin pre-installed, and I don't remember that much about Window$ anymore, so I don't know how helpful I'd be if you can't install it properly. :sorry:)
Anyway, enjoy! :nod: I'd suggest starting with the Relativistic Rollercoaster. :)
