Collisions in Greg Egan’s Orthogonal physics
Wildon's Weblog 2021-04-12
Summary:
In Greg Egan’s remarkable Orthogonal Trilogy, physics differs from ours in one crucial respect: the Lorentz metric is replaced with the Riemannian metric , putting time on the same footing as distance. As one would expect from this author, the consequences are worked out in great detail, and are integral to the plot. This comes […]
