Special relativity suggests that the closer your velocity is to the speed of light, the slower you experience time relative to a lower velocity object. Does this mean that for photons which actually travel at the speed of light, would experience no time at all?	6	askscience
[WP] Write about a day in the life of Kevin, the awkward superhero. A man who, among other, more notable abilities, has the power to completely stop time for all but himself...on the condition that he is only using the time to think of a good one-liner.	5	WritingPrompts
When it comes to massive projects like designing a rocket from the ground up (as SpaceX has done, for example), where does one even start?	5	askscience
What causes the shockwave/sonic boom when an aircraft or other projectile passes through the sound barrier, and what is the visible cloud seen at the passing composed of?	5	askscience

If you replaced every single neuron in your brain with a man made transistor (assuming the power/overheating/size/malleability issues are all solved) one-by-one, would you be able to live forever? Would you even be you anymore?	1	askscience
Assuming constant mass, and constant acceleration with negligible time for thrust redirection at the mid-point, how long (from Earths frame of reference) would it take a spaceship that is accelerating at 1G (in the ships frame of reference), to reach Alpha Centauri?	1	askscience
