If we measure the speed of quantum of light in vacuum from different inertial frames the result will be the *same* - constant. > Socratus Yes, that's exactly what I said. Jesse =. Why the result is constant ? Because all different inertial frames ( stars and planets of billions and billions gal

Occam's Razor and the Scheme of Universe. =. The principle states that: "Entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily." Now the Occam's Razor is in conflict with mainstream science. ==. At first I take the simplest reference frame - - the Euclidean space ( 2D). Now I will put a virtual - ideal p

Einstein’s SRT: what is it about? 1. One of Einstein’s postulate says that particle – quantum of light- moves in a straight line with constant speed c=1 in the vacuum. So, in SRT we have one reference frame and it is vacuum. But because Einstein took time as an constant length (1 sec= 299,792,
