GRAVITATIONAL TIME DILATION – The slowing of time near a strong gravitational field.

MASS-ENERGY EQUIVALENCE (E=mc²) – Energy and mass are interchangeable.

LENGTH CONTRACTION – The shortening of objects moving at relativistic speeds.

TIME DILATION – The slowing of time for objects moving close to the speed of light.
