My question is about time-space. It seems to me that special relativity measures time based on light and derives its conclusion on that base. If my understanding is correct, why should we rely on light to measure two moving clocks? Must we involve light when talking about time? What if light has some "strange" property which would distort our result? Granted, relativity theories provide good answers to the world where time difference is being measured using light. But it seems to me there must exist another world that is more intrinsic and where time may be measured with a superior means. This world might give us
better insight to the "strange" property of light and may reveal that space-time might no
longer be tied together. Is there any work on this subject?
