« on: Today at 13:22:54 »you did say "light does not radiate from a moving object at c" in reply #9. Am I missing something?Semantics
I was perhaps ambiguous in my reply.
The separation between moving object and the light pulse increases at the rate of 1.5c in my example. The light pulse of course is moving at c, the rate of change in its separation from the point in space where it was emitted.
As for moving the topic, I can do that, but I would like to re-title it at the same time, and that means you have to select a title more appropriate for the main sections. I suggested one, but it wasn't clear if that conveyed your actual question.
