[MD] Plancks constant visualised

Hi Adrie

One DERIVATION OF LORENTZ-EINSTEIN TRANSFORMS is about time dilation.

It works like this:

An object moving through the space with a certain percentage of the 
light speed contracts the distance

The time dilation =SQRT(1-(percentage of lightspeed^2))

I haven't learned JAVA math's yet but you can try it easily with your 
favourite calculator.

ex:

Speed (% of liLength contraction (%)
             10         99,5
             50         86,6
             70        71,41
             90        43,59
             91        41,46
             95        31,22
             97        24,31
             99        14,11
           99,1        13,39
           99,5         9,99
           99,7         7,74
           99,9         4,47
          99,91         4,24
          99,95         3,16
          99,99         2,45
         99,991         1,34
         99,995            1
         99,999         0,45
100 (The Light            0


This means that to the light itself (and smaller massless things), there 
is no space at all. How far will they reach?
