Wouldn't you just see a phase reversal and a "climb" in frequency in reverse phasing? Perhaps I miss something? Regards, JS No oproblem with 0 frequency or 0 energy being released from a particle traveling at the speed of light relative to that partcle.Negative frequency? all our current laws of physics have just been trashed if we can do that. |

My total message was not so long that it needed to be snipped , it is obvious why you did. If you just want to argue and do so by taking what somone says out of context please put me on your kill file . It is obvious that honoring netnews guidelines requires snipping the part of the message to which I am not replying. Have you read the netnews guidelines? -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

The mistake is the concept that Space is nothing ... I'm glad you agree. That is exactly the mistake that was made when scientists falsely assumed that EM waves could flow through nothing. *Every* wave needs a medium in which to flow. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

Jimmie: Yanno, Cecil is like that, just when you think you have a handle on things--HE chucks a monkey wrench in it! If you are traveling away from me, at the speed of light, and you are transmitting to me--wouldn't you be "stretching" that rf wave "flat." In effect, what I see is a DC signal (well, actually I don't see anything.) Owing to the doppler effect? Now, if you exceed that speed of light, what happens to that rf you are emitting? I'll have to think on that one a bit ... Warmest regards, JS |

Not at all. Assume two planets are traveling in opposite directions away from a reference point in space. With respect to that reference point, each is traveling at 3/4 the speed of light in opposite directions. Calculate the red shift from one planet to the other and one comes up with a negative frequency. We are likely to discover some day that gravity is a function of the relative velocity of the Earth through the ether. At least that's what my alien buddies say. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

Consider that the relative velocity between you two could exceed the speed of light without either one of you actually exceeding the speed of light referenced to a point midway between you, which is thought to be impossible except, of course, at warp 1.1 on Star Trek. Tom Paris actually managed 10^10 times the speed of light but it had severe side-effects. (He was forced to mate with Captain Janeway) :-(. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

I'll have to think on that one a bit ... Warmest regards, JS Yanno, an analogy has stuck me. If I know what speed waves travel in water and I stand on the shore of a lake and have a boat, making waves, travel away from me, I should be able to see the first case. Then, when the boat exceeds that speed, I should also be able to see the results ... Trouble right now is, I don't know the speed of waves in water and I don't have a boat. To tell you the truth, can't even remember what the waves looked like when I have had past opportunities ... Regards, JS |

So a standard unit of measurement can change value daily in an unknown fashion and still yield non-arbirtary results? You'd have to be able to demonstrate that relativistic effects single out particular units of measurement to the exclusion of others without having an effect on the observed phenomena and all within the same reference frame before being able to substantiate any claim that the result of a particular measurement is arbitrary. Can you demonstrate that? jk |

Assume you remember WWII. An Atlantic City newscaster once reported that a Marine had been sucked under the boardwalk by a big Wave. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

Cecil: Exactly, we COULD exceed the speed of light and greater, in relationship to each other! And, then the behavior of the rf, transmitted between us, could be observed at greater than light speeds. NOW. Don't knock Capt. Janeway--I kinda like strong women Warmest regards, JS |
