    Our 'Background' Speed and How it Fits with Time Dilation

    By 'objective motion' I meant motion measured against an absolute stillness in spacetime. I'm sorry if that was incorrectly worded or an absurd notion, but my thought was that a single object's motion against a fixed point in spacetime would be objective and would only become relative with the...

    Our 'Background' Speed and How it Fits with Time Dilation

    me: layman's understanding of physics and mathmatics My (very basic) understanding for this question is that: a higher rate of (objective) motion = lower rate of time for anything with mass. Is there a working figure for how much motion we experience per a specific time period from such...

    A Problem with (Almost) Universal Red Shift

    It is my understanding that, except for a couple of local galaxies, everything in the universe is moving away from us as well as from each other (relationships between inhabitants of local galactic groups excepted). If my information is acurate, how is it that a large collection of randomly...
