Jamie123 Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) He has another (#3) that looks at general relativity.Yep - I found that (eventually). He has posted 4 movies in the entire series, and I thought they were all extremely good. I was glad he didn't rely too much on the analogy of balls rolling over a rubber sheet, which we've all seen a hundred times in TV science shows! For an amateur effort this series was excellent and not at all patronizing. Edited December 15, 2011 by Jamie123 Quote
Captain_Curmudgeon Posted December 16, 2011 Report Posted December 16, 2011 One day in Kolob is equal to a thousand years according to the measurement of this earth Which is normal when you view one system in motion from another system. So, some relativity expert should be able to show what the relative speed between the two systems is, and, using Hubble's Constant, determine the distance to Kolob. Quote
