From: Victar Shawnberger on 6 Jul 2010 18:04 according to a bible study, measurements of speed of light done in the past revealed much larger values than those they measure today so is not about accuracy, for instance they never measured it under 299000 km/s hence i could safely predict a speed of light under 298000 km/s in 2100 why is the speed of light getting slower, entropy as well?

It has been since 1983. The meter is now defined such that if c changed, so would the meter to compensate. Since we are not getting anomalous readings in the Universe around us, this seems to have been a sound choice. > why is the speed of light getting slower, > entropy as well? You are confused by someone with an agenda. Here, look at what alloy bars do over time: http://nvl.nist.gov/pub/nistpubs/jres/104/3/html/j43bee.htm .... and clocks were not good standards until the 1940s. David A. Smith

Smith- Hide quoted text - > > - Show quoted text - If the Earth's speed around the Sun is taken into account it will slow time. Also rotation turning of the Earth has a speed that programs into motion Gamma. This turn speed also slows time. Light will seem to increase in speed when the measurimng devices clock run slow. You can enter slower physics either by accelerating energy or by it going into greater gravity. Mitch Raemsch
