Relativity-worshipping physicists can (and probably will) escape the faster-than-light neutrinos dilemma by dodging GPS and thus dodging relativistic time equations.
FORBES: New Evidence Casts Doubt On Faster-Than-Light Neutrinos
Its fine-scale measurements will even permit scientists to conduct some strenuous tests of General Relativity - Einstein's theory of gravity.
So relativity-worshippers may well have the last laugh.
FORBES: New Evidence Casts Doubt On Faster-Than-Light Neutrinos
Space-time, according to Einstein's theories of relativity, is a four-dimensional fabric woven together by space and time.
As Ryan Kavanaugh tries to turn Relativity into a full-fledged global movie studio, the risks that he likes to mitigate only get bigger.
FORBES: Why Ryan Kavanaugh Is Now The Most-Watched Man In Hollywood
Einstein's theory of relativity unified these and created a four-dimensional space that is an analogue to our three-dimensional space, except that the "distance" between two points need not be positive.
It was maybe because of Berne - where clocks continue to tick over centuries - that the Theory of Relativity, a concept that time is not constant, could have been born.
We know that the general theory of relativity is compatible with the existence of space-times in which travel to the past or remote future is possible.
Instead, Relativity will sell the project as a 12-episode series.

The small-ball model that has given Relativity its success.

In particle physics, sound-bite explanations are much harder: wave-particle duality, quantum mechanics, general relativity and string theory make good mathematical sense, or so I am told, but they generally defy translation into English.
Working on a theory to combine quantum mechanics with Einstein's special relativity, he realised his equations predicted a corresponding anti-particle for every particle in existence - identical in every respect, but with an opposite electrical charge.
Einstein's general theory of relativity states that objects with mass cause a curvature in space-time, which we perceive as gravity.
In the next decade, Genzel hopes the planned next generation of 30 meter-class telescopes will enable black hole astronomers to test general relativity around the event horizon itself.
FORBES: Why Our Galaxy's Supermassive Black Hole Is Hardly The Source For A 2012 Doomsday 'Killshot'
Instead of using Newton's theory of gravity to examine why fast-moving stars remain within their galaxies, the pair applied general relativity, Einstein's theory of gravity, to the problem.
"This means that by watching what happens to the positions of the quasars on the sky as the gravitational field of Jupiter moves past their line-of-sight, the scientists can test other aspects of the general relativity theory, " says Professor Shanks.
Rather than gauge box office appeal, Relativity instead listens to what cable executives are looking for. (Need 35-year-old women at 8 p.m.? Check.) He then plugs data into his computers and offers up solutions in the form of specific show ideas.

Some can argue that Relativity Media tried and failed, but perhaps they focused on the wrong part of the movie life-cycle?
The service also will provide electronic sell-through and video on demand versions of new releases from Lionsgate, NBCUniversal, Paramount Pictures, Relativity and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.
