The core idea of the theory of relativity is that two observers who move relative to each other will measure different time and space intervals for the same events, but the content of physical law will be observed the same by both.

1. Are There Pictorial Examples of Covariant and Contravariant Vectors
We present pictorial means of distinguishing contravariant vectors (or simply vectors) from covariant vectors (or linear forms).
