Knowledge you need to have:
Knowledge you need to have:
Knowledge that the speed of light in a vacuum is the same for all observers.
Knowledge that measurements of space, time and distance for a moving observer are changed relative to those for a stationary observer, giving rise to time dilation and length contraction.
