Time and Relativistic Speed |
|||||||||||||||||||||
If t=0 is the time of birth
of the Universe, then the distance of the most remote galaxies
today is the same in light years as the age of the Universe in
years.
Thus, the outermost objects must move at the speed of light
relative to us.
It takes an infinite amount of energy to accelerate a body to
light speed.
Einstein found that at v=c, mass is infinite. Then what is our
mass relative to our antipodes (objects at the greatest distance
from us in the spacetime continuum) as we recede at v=c from
them?
Is our antipodes' distance from us in light years equal to the age of the Universe (approx. 3.2 x 109 years)?
