What i try to tell you here Sam, is that both PD and INERTIAL do not
correct interpretate special relativity when the apply it on spatial
separated objects. They use some form of quasi aether for their magic.

A little thought experiment:

According you, if two spaceships are at rest 100 kms apart and you fly by at
0.99c, then you see them separated by 100 kms.

OTOH, if there are two spaceships at rest 100 kms apart and connected by 100
kms of very thin fishing line, and you fly by at 0.99c, then you will see
them separated by only a few kms as it is now one body instead of two.

Is that your theory?

Because if it is, we are going to have some fun with it.

No actually i do not beleive in it at all, i beleive in emitter theory
but Lorentz aether theory as applied by Einstein deals with tensor
stress and propagation delays.

Or are you really that stupid that you do beleive that two particle
accelerators separated by 300 000 km that fires two photons
simultaneously in frame A and B. Will have them measured as 4.2 km
apart a 2 seconds later in frame A and B.
Have special relativity taking on such incredible proportions of
stupidity or is it just you, PD and INERTIAL who have gone total
lunatic?

JT--You really need to sit down and learn special relativity.
There has never been an observation that contracts a prediction
of special relativity. It remains a very fruitful theory and
you should take the time to learn it, JT.

What is the experimental basis of special relativity?

How do you add velocities in special relativity?

Can special relativity handle acceleration?

So despite claiming that you only believed length contraction occurred for
physical bodies, you are now saying you don't believe it occurs even then?

The following site contains a list of experimental "proofs" of SR.

I tend to believe experimental results over the beliefs of a crackpot who
knows nothing about physics, I would advise you to do the same.
