Time Is Relative - The Twin Baby Experiment

The video explores the concept of time, questioning if it is moving faster or slower. It delves into Einstein's theory of relativity, explaining how time is relative and can slow down or speed up based on movement. The video discusses the practical implications of this theory, such as its impact on satellite technology and GPS accuracy. It also touches on the universe's expansion and how this might affect our perception of time. The video concludes by suggesting that the rapid pace of technological and societal changes could be evidence of time slowing down, and encourages further learning through Brilliant's relativity course.
