Why light speed is the LIMIT? What Feynman uncovered will COLLAPSE your mind
The speed of light isn't some arbitrary speed limit slapped onto the universe. It's literally built into the structure of space and time itself.

This channel has no official connection to Richard Feynman, his estate, or Caltech. It is composed of independent educators using AI technology to make Feynman's teachings more accessible.
What the channel does: Transform Feynman's lectures and writings into engaging video format using AI voice synthesis, staying faithful to his original words and style.
What it does not do: Claim this is actually Feynman speaking, add our own theories, or misrepresent his ideas.
This journey starts with Newton staring at our Moon and realizing something wild: It's FALLING (sideways making an ellipsis) right now. It is constantly falling toward Earth (but missing because it's moving sideways). That single insight kicked off a 400-year avalanche of discoveries about how the universe really works.
⚡ Then came a total accident: Astronomers noticed Jupiter's moons were running 8 minutes late sometimes. Instead of blaming their math, one guy (Rømer) had a crazy idea: What if light takes TIME to travel? Boom! "Speed of light" discovered by accident, while studying gravity.
🧠 Fast forward to Einstein, who breaks everyone's brain by proving that the faster we move, the slower TIME flows for us. Not as a feeling — it does so literally. Our clock ticks more slowly. Distances shrink. The universe reshapes itself around us to keep light moving at exactly the same speed no matter what.
This has been TESTED.
✅ Particle accelerators prove it. GPS satellites depend on it. (They'd fail without Einstein's corrections). Cosmic rays streaming through our atmosphere show it. The universe doesn't care about our common sense; it plays by different rules.
💡 Feynman's genius was showing how these discoveries connect, how confidence in one law helps us discover the next. How asking the question, "Why are Jupiter's moons wrong?" led to finding light speed, how each breakthrough creates an avalanche of new ones.

💬 QUESTION:
What breaks the brain more, that Jupiter's moons revealed light speed or that time literally slows down when we move? Ever thought about why GPS actually works? Let us know what hit differently!
