The hyperdrive from Star Wars appears to depict an ultra-relativistic motion through space, extremely close to the speed of light. Under the laws of relativity, you neither reach nor exceed the speed ...

Using ultra-fast laser pulses and special cameras, scientists have simulated an optical illusion that appears to defy Einstein's theory of special relativity. One consequence of special relativity is ...

Some scientific experiments conducted by experts are so unique that they often astonish everyone witnessing them. These experiments even produce visuals or results that seem straight out of science ...

In humans, as well as most animal species, perception of object motion is critical to successful interaction with the surrounding environment. Yet, as the observer also moves, the retinal projections ...
