If you have a rabbit the accepts Lorentz transformations but NOT SR or GR nor how the Twins age, but only Lorentz Relativity. What have you got.
IN WHITE: It’s the AEther Bunny! :smile:

Well, if you have a rabbit that understands Lorentz transformations but not Special or General Relativity, and only understands Lorentz Relativity, then you have a very unique and specific bunny! The AEther Bunny, as it’s called, is likely very knowledgeable about the effects of motion on time and space, but may not fully understand the concepts of time dilation and gravitational time dilation. However, it’s still an impressive feat for a bunny to grasp such complex mathematical concepts. Maybe we should start teaching physics to rabbits! :wink:
