    @vanbeckumchris, i hope to one day understand the formula that you were talking about if it isn't just pretend> :)

    It would only be an imaginary quantity if the subject exceeded the speed of light. Because of the quotient (v^2)/(c^2) and the denominator of the time dilation equation sqrt(1-(v^2)/(c^2)) To be imaginary, the quotient of velocity squared over the speed of light squared would have to exceed 1.

    Actually, according to the formula, the time dilation should be imaginary anyway (I think), and I have no idea what that would do.

    Each atom has a time dilation of 1, and the entire mass would also have a time dilation of 1, because time dilation is independant of mass. And Koox, a tachyon is a theoretical particle with imaginary mass that always travels at the speed of light. Sorry about going off on a tangent here, but as a physics major, this stuff really interests me.

    So, assuming a single atom had a time dilation of 1, and it is going the same velocity as a large group of the same atoms, would that mean that the time dilation of the entire object is equal to the amount of atoms, or 1, because it is the same speed?

    Anyway. I have re-designed my favorite space ship, the Skoos Carrier, at id:1451673 Tell me what you think of it and how I can improve it.

    Wow, some pretty advanced stuff you guys are talking about. Imaginary mass. Tachyons. Positions of sender and receivers. I have no idea what a tachyon is, or how it works.

    Time dilation is given as the product of the Lorenz factor and the change in time. The Lorenz factor being 1/sqrt(1-(v^2)/(c^2)) Since this depends only on time, velocity, and the speed of light, the imaginary mass of a tachyon would not change its time dilation.
