Gravity & Spacetime
From Newton's orbits to Einstein's curved spacetime: its bent light, its waves, and the speed limit no ship can cross.
LIVE
The c-Wall LORENTZ · INST-16 Pour in all the energy you like and a ship of ordinary matter crowds up against light speed forever, never touching it. Run the 1g burn and watch the years aboard buy less and less speed as the wall crowds closer, or switch to the energy curve climbing to infinity at β=1. Then flip to the warp preset and the wall sweeps past, the loophole that moves space instead of the ship. LIVE
Gravitational Waves LIGO · INST-15 Shake curved spacetime and the curvature itself ripples outward at the speed of light: a wave not through space, but of it. Watch two black holes spiral in and chirp, ride the travelling ripple across a tilted membrane, and see a real LIGO interferometer stretch one arm as the strain trace draws GW150914, with the detector genuinely blind to the cross-polarisation. LIVE
Near-Light Speed SR · INST-14 Race toward the stars and the whole sky pours forward: aberration sweeps every star to the bow, Doppler shifts the front blue and the rear red, and beaming lights the forward disc like a searchlight. Sit at the centre of the celestial sphere and look around, even behind you, or watch from outside as the stars migrate to the velocity pole, all from exact special relativity. Flip to the warp-bubble preset and the violence vanishes, which is the whole point of the bubble. LIVE
Light Bending LENSING · INST-13 The 1919 eclipse that chose Einstein over Newton: the Sun's gravity shifts every star near the limb outward by exactly 1.75 arcseconds, twice what Newton allowed. Drag the Sun through a live deflected field under a shader corona, or swing round to watch photons bend across the curved spacetime grid to Earth, with the true and Newton positions drawn alongside. LIVE
Black Hole GR · INST-02 Light, bent by gravity, in real time. The confirmed route: extreme mass, rendered from the equations. LIVE
Gravity N-BODY · INST-01 The orbits themselves, the same Newtonian law that holds a planet in orbit, in real time. The bedrock under the speculation.
