That nothing can go faster then light
...not that light is the reason...
it just light is what we see hitting the speed limit
The thought experiment I came up with to see this idea of a natural speed limit is ...
imagine some one running in a circle going faster and faster...
at what point to they catch and pass there-self?...
silly right?
but you start to see the issues with time and space....
oddly to an outside looker the someone running in a circle going faster and faster would start look like a single object occupying the entire circle
And pump in more energy to try go in a circle even faster
that single object occupying the entire circle starts looking denser and heaver
I see matter really an oscillating engery wave from this
thanks. i think relativity, as popularly expressed, is mental masturbation.
