Future Land vs TED

Lorentz contraction The lenght of an object moving at speeds approaching the speed of light, with respect to an observer at rest, will contract along the direction of motion by the factor L = L1 * sqrt(1-(v/c)^2) where L is the length observed by the observer in state of rest, L1 is the length measured when the object is motionless, 'v' is the velocity of the object and 'c' is the speed of light (about 300000 km/sec), In our case the Eiffel Tower (about 320 meters) when it approachs the speed of light its lenght will shrink as the screen image. The program will also display the correct data. Time in the moving system will be observed by a stationary observer to be running slower. In other words if the Eiffeil tower would travel during one year (tower time) at 95% of the speed of light, the elapsed time on the Earth will be equal to 3.2 years and the tower lenght will be about 100 meters. Travel into the future. It is possible "to travel into the future" by using a very speed spacecraft. Depending on the acceleration of the spacecraft (in our case from 1 to 5 G) and the time spent on board, on the Earth will spend a greater number of years.

Engage with TED-Ed’s initiatives. For free. TED-Ed has helped hundreds of thousands of educators and students come together to learn from each other and connect on ideas worth spreading. We created the TED-Ed Community to bring together like-minded and passionate educators, who are actively involved in TED-Ed’s initiatives. If you are a TED-Ed Student Talks facilitator or a TED-Ed Educator, this platform allows you to: - access all your TED-Ed resources according to the initiative - connect with a global network of educators - collaborate with like-minded, passionate individuals Get the TED-Ed community app to stay connected and collaborate with TED-Ed initiatives. About TED-Ed TED-Ed's mission is to ignite curiosity and amplify the voices of learners and educators worldwide. In pursuit of this mission we produce award-winning educational animations in multiple languages and host life-changing, in-person programs for students, teachers and learners of all ages.
