    Tangential Velocity, Frames, and the Speed of Light

    :rolleyes: Sorry, I have not yet had my coffee for the day. What I meant was a right triangle.

    Tangential Velocity, Frames, and the Speed of Light

    Yes, the frame here I am referring to would be a rotating coordinate system, where every part of my craft is at rest. I guess my more overarching question perhaps is this: Ignore the fact that ships have mass for a second and assume Ship A and B are both traveling at 1c. My observer craft...

    Tangential Velocity, Frames, and the Speed of Light

    Hello gurus, I have a mental experiment that I'm wrangling with. Assume for a moment that two craft (Ship A and Ship B) are approaching each other at a significant fraction of c. Let us also assume that I, the observer, am in a stationary craft a large distance away rotating with the plane...
