MR TOMPKINS

And he wrote a series of books called Mr. Tompkins, the Mr. Tompkins series. And this is, Mr. Tompkins, I think that the root name of the series is Mr. Tompkins in Wonderland, but is it Wonderland? No, that's Alice in Wonderland. I'm getting my fictional worlds mixed up, but it's definitely Mr. Tompkins. And he goes into worlds where the constants of the laws of physics are different. And one of the stories is the speed of light is 60 miles an hour or like 100 miles, something where you're in a car and you can approach the speed of light just as a regular Joe doing so. And when you do that, he then describes what you see and how things get distorted and so I highly recommend the whole Mr. Tompkins series because it brings exotic phenomenon of physics into your everyday life experience.

So if you go very fast near the speed of light, the light sources in front of you become basically blue shifted. They have higher energy than you would otherwise measure them to have. And if you look behind you, everything has lower energy.
