E=mc2 is Incomplete [Video]

What is perhaps the most famous equation in the world, e=mc2 (sorry, Pythagorean theorem), also happens to be incomplete. MinutePhysics is here to show you the missing pieces, which, much to the Pythagorean theorem’s joy, actually employs a little a2+b2=c2, and explains the utter importance of the underrepresented p times c part of the equation. Happy learning.

    So in other words, FTL is not going to be possible due to the hypotenuse being longer than the two legs. For example: Csquared being greatern than asquared or bsquared, means not quite the speed of light… And no easy travel between stars… Rats.
