Excursions at the Speed of Light

Posted by Zonk on from the nice-bike dept.

D4C5CE writes "S/F fans can finally find out what you really get to see at relativistic velocity, and tourists are one step closer to "doing Europe in a day" in these amazing Space Time Travel simulations of the Theoretical Astrophysics & Computational Physics department at the Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics Tübingen. They put you in a driver's seat that both Armstrong the Astronaut and Armstrong the Cyclist would equally enjoy, in simulators built to ride a bike at the speed of light."

    PLEASE use spell check. Spelling is an important part of English. It is hard to take things seriously when everything is spelled wrong. I'm sure you're not a native speaker, but if you want to be taken seriously by them then USE SPELL CHECK.
