But that is something that could serve as a proxy for the idea of exotic matter and may help us one day make the idea of a space warp a physical real thing. Wow.

Right, right, potentially. Yeah, it unlocks just about anything. Let's go back a slide real quick, Jamie. I want to share something with you. So the next time you're in an airport, you can do this, right? Okay. So if you want to try and imagine the idea how a space warp works in theory, if you will. Now, this is just a thought experiment.

So thought experiments aren't exactly precise, but they do help communicate the idea. Yeah. So, you know, when you go to an airport and they've got those long conveyor belts, if you will. I think they call them travelators. And so they help us move quicker between gates.

Right, right.

Right, right.

Right, right.

So if you think about what happens when you make use of one of these travelators, it's just like you said, most of us walk, right? So when we're at the airport, we're walking, we're dragging our bag, and we usually walk about three miles an hour. And then when we get onto the belt, we keep walking. Now, if you think about what, so let's say Jamie's sitting at a gate and he's watching you walk by.

Before you get onto the belt, he sees you walking at three miles an hour. When you get onto the belt, all of a sudden to Jamie, it looks like you're going six miles an hour. So what's going on here? Well, think about the belt, right? The length of the belt in front of you, what's happening to it?

it's it's technically it's it's it's going underneath right this is a metaphor right it's going underneath but the length of belt in front of you is actually contracting right right and so by the same token the length of belt behind you yes it's come it's a conveyor belt but it's expanding behind you so the belt is contracting and expanding in such a way that it now seems like to jamie that you're you're moving at six miles an hour
