Minkowski’s concept of a space-time continuum, coupled with Einstein’s theory of general relativity, leads to the construct of the “geodesic”. Most of us grew up on the notion that a straight line is the shortest distance between two points. Minkowski made a mess of that idea. Now we would say that a “geodesic” is the shortest distance between two points, allowing that in Minkowski space, that line may not be straight in the Euclidian sense. This image is a fantasy on the concept of the geodesic, as we imagine two pigeons resting on the shortest path along a stretch of the Zumbro River.
