From my understanding of special relativity and general relativity, I understand that I can never ctach up with a beam of light because a matter particle can never reach the speed of light.
But, for a moment, imagine that I can catch up with a beam of light. The same thought experiment that nutritioned Einstein to develop the special theory of relativity. But did einstein miss out a point?????
This was Einstein's question "If I pursue a beam of light with the velocity c (velocity of light in a vacuum), I should observe such a beam of light as an electromagnetic field at rest though spatially oscillating???" Did Einstein miss out the better question?
Travelling at a speed of light will open up an entirely new perspective of universe to us, the universe without the phenomenon called time.
All the events in the universe would have happened simultaneously. The universe will never be kinetic any more. Therefore the question regarding the wave nature of light doesn't apply anymore. You will never see the light rays in the way you perceive them (three dimensional perspective). A light ray in the higher dimensional space will be different.
Aren't I right? I have always imagined this thought experiment and came up on this conclusion.
