    Relativity isn't a little side concept in physics, it's the center of everything. If it's wrong, everything we know is wrong. I guess that could be the case, but I don't see the point in worrying...

    I guess you're all missing my point. Physics doesn't change because the observer is moving. Obviously velocity is real and has something to do with physical interactions.

    The original question...

    I have no clue what you are trying to argue. Einstein's huge insight was that physics does not depend on relative velocity. Among a lot of other things, the observed speed of light does not depend on...

    It's basic physical common sense. In order to do physics, we have to first assume that the universe is consistent. Without that, there is no point. So, assuming a consistent universe, it is clear...

    This has to do with interactions between objects. I'm talking about basic relativity. It is logically impossible for the laws of physics to vary with velocity, because velocity is always relative and...

    Oh yeah? Ponder this one: The value pi (you know, 3.14159...) was first defined as "the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter." In modern times, we know that pi has an infinite...

    No atom can move at the speed of light, so this question has no natural answer.

    Does physics change when things move? No, it does not. This is one of the most central and fundamental principles of...
