The only real difference between SRT and LR (Lorentzian Relativity) is SRT assumed that the normalized inertial frame (the one at 'relative' rest) IS 'at rest'. In other words, SRT simply renormalizes the rest frame ad hoc, LR considers it normalizable but, realizes that, for light speed to be independent of emission, there must exist the underlying physical frame controlling that behavior. BUT! the results are IDENTICAL! All matter & fields obey the Lorentz Transforms AT EVER INSTANT! So, it does not matter that the Earth speed changes, the fields will too, thus no measurable difference. > The OP invited people to make a sketch of the moving apparatus (of > course "moving" means for the case that v>0, for example in the solar > frame) and draw the light paths in it. > > Now, he claimed that the *only* way we can obtain the MMX "null" > result is if we make the lengths of the legs in our sketch different > from each other - if indeed we assume that the speed of light is > everywhere in vacuum constant. The problem is, since you and everything else changes automatically according to the LT as speed changes YOU! can't see or measure those changes. There in lies the problem... THAT! is what everyone has been trying to tell you and OP.... Since SRT theorists deny any physical reality to the 'contraction' ascribing it to a 'geometric rotation' in the relative moving 'frame'. > Such a consideration and associated sketch are nothing extraordinary, > and one may even say that it's the "A" of the "ABC" of SRT.
