Special Relativity simulator

Author:Nathaniel Cunningham
A series of different scenarios, all created and run in the same Special Relativity simulator applet. A better simulator, modeled after the same SPACETIME program by Edwin Taylor that also inspired this applet, is available from http://stuleja.org/spacetime/ and https://github.com/nathaniel/spacetime.
