What? Do you realise how ridiculous it is talking about experienced time? When was I ever talking about your personal view of time and of it seeming 'normal'. Saying you're talking about one and not the other is just absurd, it makes no sense. Time is relative. You can't talk about 'experienced time' when time itself is relative. If you're talking about time, you're talking about 'relative time' as you call it.Lt. Staplic wrote:relative time is the time that passes for one in reference to the time passing for another.
experienced time would be the same for all. it's your own personal view of time, so to everyone their moving normal.
It was an analogy, what you said before was an almost mathematical explanation to speeds in space and time adding up to the speed of light, which is plain wrong. You made no reference to the fact what you were saying was an analogy or incorrect on a physical basis, which is quite important as you're talking about one of the most fundamental aspects of special relativity.and yes the analagy he uses is generalized the leap is true. He even says right in there that we can think of speed through time similar to speed through space.
