Summary
Description Relativity of Simultaneity Animation.gif |
English:
Animation illustrating relativity of simultaneity. The three events (A, B, C) are simultaneous from the reference frame of an observer moving at
v
= 0. From the reference frame of an observer moving at
v
= 0.3
c
, the events appear to occur in the order C, B, A. From the reference frame of an observer moving at
v
= -0.5
c
, the events appear to occur in the order A, B, C. The white line represents a
plane of simultaneity
being moved from the past of the observer to the future of the observer, highlighting events residing on it. The gray area is the light cone of the observer.
