Try some self- education, Seto.

In his article 'The Visual Appearance of Rapidly Moving Objects' (Physics Today, 13, 24 Sept. 1960) Weisskopf repeated this point showing that when the cube is at right angles to a stationary observer the face ABCD facing the observer will be a square. They both show that, due to aberration, the observer would also see face ABEF (the rear face of the cube in its direction of travel) as being apparently contracted however those who insist that the cube has rotated are not taking into account the fact that this is nothing more than a visual illusion. If the cube is a train carriage and it physically rotates then only one set of wheels, at corner A, will still be in contact with the tracks from the stationary observer's point of view.
