Physics, Astronomy & Cosmology / If you travel in time, but not in space, where would you end up?
« on: 21/04/2008 17:53:42 »I wondered about this too. If space-time is interweaved, and time is relative, how about travelling close to the speed of light on the spot (like a treadmill). How would that affect the spacetime in which you are in?
Umm... I don't think it would affect the spacetime you are in at all, although you'd be exhausted from all the running. The belt of the treadmill, on the other hand would experience time dilation and, as a consequnce, wouldn't suffer as much wear as you'd expect:)
