Patreon Questions for new video! What are some of your favorite sci-fi stories that deal with time dilation or relativity?
Added 2025-07-24 21:12:25 +0000 UTCHey everyone, Quinn here.
I’m working on a new video diving into Tau Zero by Poul Anderson — one of the most fascinating hard sci-fi novels ever written, especially when it comes to time dilation and near-light-speed travel. This one gets really deep into relativistic physics, and I think you all are going to love it.
While I’m putting it together, I’d love to hear from you:
What are some of your favorite sci-fi stories that deal with time dilation or relativity?
Some of my personal favorites:
Interstellar (of course, that water planet scene!)
The Three-Body Problem and its sequels (so many wild takes on time and cosmic scale)
Drop your favorites in the comments, I might include some of your picks in the video!
Thanks for supporting Quinn’s Ideas
More soon,
- Quinn

For sure the Forever War. Just typing that out makes me want to re-read it.
