|    Why Einstein's Relativity Is Doomed    |
|    28 Jun 23 00:48:56    |
      From: pvalev@yahoo.com              Einstein's relativity is doomed for the simple reason that it violates the       following absolute truth:              The speed of light, as measured by an observer/receiver, VARIES with the speed       of the emitter.              Absolute truths cannot be ignored forever, no matter how brainwashed humankind       is.              https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-f10f1c25528a4e5edc9bae200640f31c-pjlq              "Emission theory, also called emitter theory or ballistic theory of light, was       a competing theory for the special theory of relativity, explaining the       results of the Michelson–Morley experiment of 1887...The name most often       associated with emission        theory is Isaac Newton. In his corpuscular theory Newton visualized light       "corpuscles" being thrown off from hot bodies at a nominal speed of c with       respect to the emitting object, and obeying the usual laws of Newtonian       mechanics, and we then expect        light to be moving towards us with a speed that is offset by the speed of the       distant emitter (c ± v)." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emission_theory              "Moreover, if light consists of particles, as Einstein had suggested in his       paper submitted just thirteen weeks before this one, the second principle       seems absurd: A stone thrown from a speeding train can do far more damage than       one thrown from a train        at rest; the speed of the particle is not independent of the motion of the       object emitting it. And if we take light to consist of particles and assume       that these particles obey Newton's laws, they will conform to Newtonian       relativity and thus        automatically account for the null result of the Michelson-Morley experiment       without recourse to contracting lengths, local time, or Lorentz        ransformations. Yet, as we have seen, Einstein resisted the temptation to       account for the null result in terms        of particles of light and simple, familiar Newtonian ideas, and introduced as       his second postulate something that was more or less obvious when thought of       in terms of waves in an ether."
