Default The Speed of Light

Two flash light back to back can't be said for you to say their
light(photons) are moving twice as fast from each other 186,242+ 186,242
So that being true, Where are you going to go.? Your brain
tellsyou to argue this,but your wrong and Einstien was right. Light
speed is a constant. No Frame of reference to show different speeds of
light Go figure Bert

Einstein said himself that his theory for special relativity about the
speed of light, did not apply to gravitational influences.

Zan Einstein knew photons did not travel in a straight line when under
the influence of gravity,andEddigton proved it. I would have agreed with
einstein if I was alive backin those good old days. Amazing was how good
Einstein's math showed thecurve (It was a little curve Bert

Actually, it is much better to think of spacetime as contracted by
gravity, if you want to understand spacetime curvatures.

It is the contraction of the spacetime made by gravity, that generates
the curvature bending the light.

Then you will see that light is not just bended, but also slowed down.

parllel universe have diffrent speed of light 128 168 300 299 thats how you find diffrent universe i'm from the planet earth that is the 7th from the sun stuck on one that the planet is 3rd from the sun the speed of light is 128 and 32 dimentions Roger Wilco Misc 1 December 30th 03 11:15 PM
