Physics!

Blue shift.
When approaching something with speeds close to the speed of light, the object appears more blue than it it.
When you move away with such speeds, it appear more red than it is.

Basically a Doppler-effect on the light you see reflecting from the object.

does...does that mean there was another scientific term to a half life game?

fun fact, because this effect, if we ever achieve faster than light travel, the visible light from stars will shift into the X-ray range and microwave radiation from the Big Bang into will shift to the visible spectrum.
so faster than light speed will actually look like this

To be technical, it works that way at any speed. Its just negligible at the speeds we can reach.

*... the object appears more blue than it is.

well, what you see as the object is, in reality, just the light being reflected by the object.

I'm german but I'll still try to explain despite my lack of terminology

Light mostly behaves like electromagnetic waves. Now, when the sound of a passing ambulance car gets lower when it drives away from you, the waves are strechtched (or clinched when it's drivin in your direction). Same applies for light. The wavelength varies when you are moving. This phenomenon is called the doppler effect. Now if you change thewavelength of light, the color changes. Scince you are moving with great velocity to the sticker, the Waves are clinched and the color turns blue for instance.

Here, I hope this will help :)

moechler is right, i was too slow posting similar thing...

colorblind master race reporting in

Oh my god, that gif gets me every time..

I fucking know right, yet I still really want to see what that infomercial was saying

Wololo!

i love you man hahahahaha

I got more thumbs than the original comment poster. I actually feel bad, I couldn't have gotten them without his input.

Thanks for the love though, always nice to hear.

Shit Bill, I told you not to install the turbo boosters!

Gee Bill, how come your mom lets you have 2 turbo boosters?

You surely are a master wizard.

ENJOY

Aww shit has it already been done?

Thank you, you glorious bastard!

Very welcome!

dont know if youre trying to make me look foolish for your own devious pleasure or it really works

yes

well played

I have a laptop and was shaking it vigorously back and forth. Well played you classy devil.

Its probably a coincidence this is exactly the top comment on the imgur version of this picture

the lipstick thing might be true, it is part of actors make up and think of how dark lighted the movie is, you can't tell in the movie, which means the makeup artists did their jobs

fuck
