Why Does Time Slow Down at High Speeds
Why does time slow down at high speeds? In this episode, we explore the science behind time dilation, one of the most fascinating predictions of Einstein’s theory of special relativity. As objects approach the speed of light, time does not flow the same way — clocks move slower, aging changes, and spacetime itself behaves differently.We break down how velocity affects time, why astronauts and fast-moving particles experience measurable time shifts, and how experiments have confirmed that time slows down at high speeds. From spacetime curvature to the speed of light limit, this episode explains the physics of time dilation in a...
