What happens if two objects travel at speed 1/2c in opposite directions?
Like suppose two ships left the ISS in opposite directions, each going speed 1/2c.
Wouldn't either of the ships determine that the other is moving away at the speed of light?
Could they see each other?
What if they both went 3/4c in opposite directions? would they conclude the speed between them was greater than c?
