Interpolation between a Lorentz transformation and an almost Galilean transformation

Summary edit

Description
English: A Lorentz transformation looks like a Galilean transformation when you stretch the time axis (x-axis here). The red lines show the light cone from the origin and the blue points are spacetime events that undergo a continuously increasing Lorentz transformation.
