The Enigma of the Fastest Path “Mathematics directs the flow of the universe‚ lurks behind its shapes and curves‚ holds the reins of everything from tiny atoms to the biggest stars.” ― Edward Frenkel‚ Love and Math: The Heart of Hidden Reality I would often wonder what would it be like to travelling at the speed of light. It could possibly only be a mere aspiration because I realized that achieving that speed was close to impossible. Definitely not a job worthy of a 17-year-old. It is no espionage

The biggest equation to come out of Einstein’s theory of special relativity is E = mc^2‚ which tells us how E‚ the energy‚ M‚ the mass‚ and C‚ the speed of light‚ are related to each other. This mass we are using is not the same as weight. An object’s mass is how much stuff is inside of it‚ while its weight is how hard gravity is pulling on it. This is why when you measure your weight in outer space‚ it is close to zero. Einstein’s theory states that‚ the speed of light becomes a sort of ultimate

Humans have always had a fascination with flying since the beginning of time. Hot air balloons were invented in 1783‚ one step closer to the airplane. The balloon is filled with hot air‚ which makes the balloon fly to the air because hot air is lighter than cool air. The only problem with the hot air balloon was that you could not control the direction it was going. The first airplane was actually a glider. This aircraft was launched from a cliff or from any high place. It rode on the wind
