“For Eureka, I decided on the topic of time dilation and the theory of relativity. Researching this topic really fuelled my interest in physics as a whole. For this competition, I created a website with information about the physics of time and how it changes the speed at which we see the world. The website has some amazing stuff, like checking if certain movies are scientifically accurate and a time dilation calculator where you can see how long you would actually be gone if you were travelling at lightspeed. It features an Einstein AI you can talk to and solve mysteries with. This topic is very difficult but intriguing, and I want other people my age to have the same experience and interest I did. So, I created a video game that helps you learn how time dilation works in a fun and enjoyable way. I also made a board game to play with family or friends so they can learn how interesting physics could be. To go with everything, I created a poster that showcases the time dilation formula and includes simplified explanations and examples to make it easier to understand.”
