This is done so well that the material can, in principle, be learned directly from the diagrams. ⓵ Basics, Galilean Relativity http://edu-observatory.org/olli/Relativity/Week1.html ⓶ Einsteinian Relativity http://edu-observatory.org/olli/Relativity/Week2.html ⓷ Causality http://edu-observatory.org/olli/Relativity/Week3.html ⓸ Consequences http://edu-observatory.org/olli/Relativity/Week4.html ⓹ Review of Spacetime Diagrams, Special Relativity, and Lorentz Transformations http://edu-observatory.org/olli/Relativity/Week5.html ⓺ What are necessary applications of special relativity in the real world? http://edu-observatory.org/olli/Relativity/Week6.html Interactive Minkowski Diagram https://sciencesims.com/sims/minkowski/ Lorentz Factor Calculator 𝛾 = 1/√(1-(v^2/c^2)) https://www.azcalculator.com/calc/lorentz-factor-calculator.php https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_factor
