In relativity of simultaneity, it is said like simultaneous
events for one observer is not simultaneous for another.
Does that mean events been seen from one observers
point of view may not be true?
For example consider the bell’s spaceship paradox
From my point of view the "silk thread" which was tied
between the two spaceships were broken because of length
contraction. But from the travelers point of view they
never feel any length contraction or any weird effects, they are the same as if they were in rest so the silk thread won't break in their view. Later they'll return to Earth and we notice the silk thread remain unbroken. So point of view was true? Travelers or observers?
