i don't know the "answer." it went from being a flat circle to being on a globe. how did that happen?

how did it go from being flat, to being a circle drawn on a sphere?

this may help in unified theory: http://www.scienceforums.net/forums/showthread.php?t=5503 it is wierd

perhaps the radius bends into a new dimension. the circle becomes a 2 dimensional bowl?

being proportional doesn't make it an extension

is there a way to calculate how much the circumference shrinks relative to speed?

why don't you explain it to me?

why would it shrink?????????? if the radius shrank, wouldn't there be no circle if it got close enough to c?

punk, rock, punk rock, classical, spanish pop

if it started before us and is faster than us, how hasn't it passed seconds after the big bang. actually, it should have passed before matter was even created.

the radius only has one dimension and it doesn't shrink due to motion. the cercumference has nothing to do with if an object is a circle; it is just the length of the distance from one point in the set to itself. edit: it still has the same equation, it is still a circle.

it may be some odd new form of geometry(long shot, but maybe) how do you know it is a him? don't assume things.

then how the bloody hell did we get in front of it??????????????? radiation was created before matter. radiation travels faster than matter. we should not be able to see radiation from the big bang.

distance only shrinks in direction of motion. that is why i made the post in the first place. odd problem. i am going to ask my physics professor tommarrow

that is what i am saying. it would have passed us LONG ago.

the radius does not shrink i liked the quote, that is why i typed it

time actually slows down when in motion. it has been proven with jets and atomic clocks.

i'm sorry, but i found it extremely funny. i guess am a just a sick and twisted alien vampire.

yes, you did.

that isn't nice

I am not sure what sayo is wanting me to explain. it is pretty simple.

no it is not. it is an inference based on your post. you said the contraction of length is an illusion, so I assumed you also thought time dialation is also an illusion.

how COULD it be? logic would dictate it is impossible. energy travels at c, matter deosn't. i have never understood why people thought that it is from big bang.

Today at school, we had a power outage. A squerrel got into a transformer. I just thought some of you would find it amusing.
