Pour one out for rest mass (m₀), lying there buried under relativistic effects while physicists keep obsessing over its transformed state! The equation at the bottom is Einstein's relativistic mass formula, showing how objects get heavier as they approach light speed. That person lying on the ground? That's classical mechanics, utterly flattened by special relativity, while the equation below is literally saying "I'm still relevant even when you're moving at 99% the speed of light." Physics departments worldwide haven't stopped nerding out about this concept since 1905, despite most undergrads wishing it would just stay buried.
