Die ganz andere Welt (1x2)

Date de diffusion: Nov 30, 2003

There is no doubt that space and time are immovable and experienced by everyone. But, modern science once again shows a surprising aspect of the world in which we live. In airplanes, space stations and satellites times go by at different speeds and technicians have to take this into account in their developments, like the GPS system. We can also make our time run faster or slower so that we age differently than usual. How this trick works, shows Joachim Bublath in this episode of the series "Faszination Universum". An exciting question is also how each one of us experiences time and how our brain creates a sense of the passage of time. It comes to bizarre situations that each of us has already experienced. For example, you think you have experienced something in certain situations that is happening just now. Or you are wrong - depending on the environment - in the speed with which time runs out. This is explained in this episode with amazing experiments.
