Intergalactic spaceflight: an uncommon way to relativistic kinematics and dynamics [PDF]
In the Special Theory of Relativity space and time intervals are different in different frames of reference. As a consequence, the quantity 'velocity' of classical mechanics splits into different quantities in Special Relativity, coordinate velocity, proper velocity and rapidity.
