The Motion Paradox. Posted on J by Poignantboy. Standard. We all enjoy a good paradox, right? Well, I thought I’d do a blog post on one particular philosophical paradox that I personally find to be quite – if you’ll forgive the term – cool.

The Pre-Socratic philosopher Zeno of Elea did not think so. Zeno offered four paradoxes of motion in an attempt to prove that motion is an illusion: the paradox of the racecourse and the inverted paradox; Achilles and the tortoise; the arrow; and the stadium (Watson ; Huggett.

Joseph Mazur, acclaimed author of Euclid in the Rainforest, shows how historic breakthroughs in our understanding of motion shed light on Zeno's paradox. The orbits of the planets were explained, the laws of motion were revealed, the theory of relativity was discovered—but the basic structure of time and space remained elusive.
