Understanding the Complex: Einstein's Theory of Relativity — Without the Formulas
The anchor example:
GPS satellites move at ~8,700 mph relative to Earth's surface. Their onboard atomic clocks lose ~7 microseconds per day compared to clocks on the ground.
That's the fact. This lesson explains why it's true.
