What is the Experimental Basis of Special Relativity?

[Ibix]

The Experimental basis of SR FAQ (https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/faq-experimental-basis-of-special-relativity.229034/) no longer seems to be stickied at the top of this forum. Perhaps five stickies would be too many, in which case I think it's worth adding to the FAQ list (https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/relativity-faq-list.807523/).

I've added it to the FAQ.

I think this one is sufficiently important to be a top-level sticky, not just another FAQ entry.

Me too. I didn't know that it had been unstuck, but I refer to it more than any single other resource we have.

I think that if we are worried about too many stickies then we can remove both the Maxwell’s Equations in a Static, Spherically Symmetric Spacetime and the An Introduction to the Generation of Mass from Energy from the stickies and move those to the FAQ instead. I think that the twin paradox sticky and the experimental basis sticky are higher priority than those two.

I just stickied the thing again.
