The Lorentz factor is the factor by which

time length and mass change for an object moving at speeds close to the speed of light (relativistic speeds)

This script calculates the Lorentz factor (γ) for a given velocity and creates a graph of time dilation vs. velocity. The closes the velocity is to the speed of light:

*The more time dilation occurs. ex: 299,792 k/s = 1 year for a stationary observer only 0.64 days pass for the moving object.

At the speed of Light Max Speed

Speed of 1Km/s Not Max Speed

Note: Some of this code was generated with Deepseek & Chatgpt (The Graph)
