AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a relativistic space-time diagram with x and y axes, including two angular bisectors of the axes. Create points and connect them to form a rectangle, then draw multiple line segments from the vertices. Rotate a point and connect it to the origin to form a slanted line representing time dilation, illustrating the transformation of space and time.
