Actually, I'm more curious what happens when authorities come to where
you live.
Since you go to church, it's obvious that you can get to the library
in Maricopa. There's actually a very good university in Phoenix, too.
So you really don't have a good excuse not to go there to get some
answers you keep asking for here.

Oh, but they are! You were the one, I believe, that said that the
Galilean transformations don't say anything about clock measurements.
That's where you are wrong. The clock measurements are what turn the
equations into physics, into the Galilean transformations.

You always have, Robert. Unfortunately, the algebraic diddling you do
doesn't have anything to do with physics. That's the problem, you see.

Well, as I said, if you do not want to talk about your "facts", don't
talk about them. It does not matter to me.

Wonderful that you would comment on this, YBM. So let's take
Einstein's example of the train and railroad track. In his day they
would boil water in the engine of the train to make steam, which ran a
steam engine, the force of which was transferred mechanically to the
wheels of the engine, causing them to turn. Today it is done by an
internal combustion diesel engine.
So now we have the engine of the train running, and the engineer
puts the train in gear and applies the force of the train engine to
the wheels.
What is going to happen, YBM?
Is the train going to continue to stand still at the station?
Is the train going to stand still, but the station and railroad
track will move away in accordance with the turning of the wheels of
the train?
Are the station and railroad track going to stand still and the
train begin to move down the track?
We can examine this modern example from the ideas of Aristotle,
Galileo, and Newton. And Einstein.
Then we can decide whether the force of the train engine had
anything to do with what takes place.
What do you say, YBM?
This might be a great step forward for science.

Q1 Everything in motion relative to that frame runs slower.
Q2 Clocks on earth run slower than time on the sun. Time on the sun
is slower than time at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. Time at
the center of the Milky Way galaxy is slower than time at the center
of gravity of the universe unless the center of the Milky Way galaxy
is the center of gravity of the universe.
Q3 Time is not the same everywhere. The equation t'=t applies to
only two frames of reference, for which the Galilean transformation
equations describe the motion of S' relative to S. If we are talking
about Einstein's example of the train and railroad track, S is the
railroad track and S' is the train. If we are talking about the earth
and a satellite in orbit, S is the earth, and S' is the satellite. If
we are talking about the earth and the sun, S is the sun, and S' is
the earth.

x'=x-vt
y'=y
z'=z
t'=t

n'=t(1-v/c)

n' is time on a clock in S', and t is time on a clock in S. A
clock in S' is always slower than a clock in S because S' is moving
relative to S.
