Actually, standing on the earth we are already moving at over 1,000 mph.
If you point a flashlight in the direction of rotation--it has the
potential of +1,000 mph than when you turn around and point it west.

Also, the universe is expanding, and that is pushing us on at a good
clip. Funny you don't see this being taken into account anywhere except
on space launches... but I have noticed what looks like a speedier
launch in one direction of my monopole, as compared to the other...

.... most notably, when my ant is at an angle 90 degrees to the combined
directions of both the rotation of the earth and the expanding universe
direction... grin

Warmest regards,
John

I pictured this, I am in a spacecraft doing the speed of light, I key
the xmitter and begin a long winded rant, the antenna is monopole.

Now the signal leaving the rear of the antenna appears to be leaving
it at 2X the speed of light (allowing for the VF of space-ether),
however, the signal off the very front, at least the width of the
antenna conductor itself, cannot leave (since I am traveling at the
speed of light the signal appears to just stay on the surface of the
conductor)--what will happen?

Warmest regards,
John
