The most mind-blowing moment I’ve ever had was the course Relativistic Electrodynamics.
If you assume static electricity (charges attract or repel), then apply special relativity to see what the situation looks like to an observer travelling by, you get magnetism!
Turns out half of Maxwell’s laws is a direct consequence of the other half once you know about special relativity.

Isn’t space time curvature fun?
It has me so choked uo my throat is sore. Somebody pass me a Lorentz
That is why they can be written really neatly in a relativistic formulation, but look fucked up in a classical one.
The workings of electromagnetic forces have long been postulated¹

Particals are positive, particles are negative, you can’t explain that.
