Einstein made several serious errors.

One was his method of synchronisation.

he had (simplified) this picture in mind:

I receive a light signal, which originates from a remote clock and take 
that signal as information about the remote time.

The error:

that signal does not contain the remote time, because light needs time 
to travel. This discrepancy is called 'delay', but Einstein didn't 
mention it with a single word.

Another serious error:

he ascribed the effects of motion to the moving object, while it is 
actually an effect, which is only visible at the side of the observer.

That is very similar to the Doppler effect, which is also not audible at 
the side of the moving source of a sound, but audible at the side of the 
road, where someone listens to a sirene of a police car passing by.

Annoying were Einstein's naming conventions.

Especially annoying were the reuse of variable names and the lack of 
definitions of used symbols.

Seriously unscientific were the lack references to the used materials.

Especially missing were quotes or references to Poincaré and Heinrich Hertz.

This is so, because a few of Einstein's equations were seemingly 
inspired by Poincare's 'Sur le dynamic de l'electron' (or something 
similar in French).

Heinrich-Hertz was also used, but no references were provided.

Also the quotes from Hertz were not verbatim, because Hertz used total 
derivatives and Einstein partial (in an apparently quoted equation).

It ook me quite a while to identify, what Einstein called 'Maxwell-Hertz 
equation', but found his quote was different to the origional (besides 
of the obviously missing reference).

I want to express this point a little more explicit, because it is 
actually a main point of my critique and actually not limited to SRT.



So, let's take a simplified picture and use a HUGE telescope and and a 
HUGE clock on the Moon.

Now we peep through this telecope and see the hands of the gigantic 
watch on the Moon.

We can see the hand with the seconds moving around once a minute.


Now (at precisely this moment) the watch shows exactly 1 pm and zero 
seconds.

What is then the time on the Moon ?

It is, of cause, NOT 1:00:00 pm, but 1:00:01 pm (supposed the watch is 
one light second away).



Therefore it is not allowed to take the actually reading as remote time, 
but we need to add the delay.

To do this, we would need to know that delay, hence need to measure it.


But this is NOT what Einstein had done.

In fact he made no efforts at all, to calculate, let alone measure that 
delay.

Therefore we are allowed to assume, that he didn't want to do this and 
simply forgot the delay.


BTW: A very similar problem occurs in common cosmology, because 
'stargazers' simply ignore, that the stars seen do not belong to the 
same time 'sheet'.

This is a very serious and VERY obscure error, because you certainly do 
not want to assume, that events at different times would influence each 
other both ways.

Since your point is to illustrate Einstein' definition of
simultaneity, we will assume, like you do below, that the clock
on the Moon and the clock on the Earth are synchronous according
to said definition.

And we can see that the clock at the Moon showed tB
when the light left the clock on the Moon.

The clock on the Earth shows t'A when
the clock in the telescope shows tB.

>

The time on the Moon is obviously:
the point in time t'A + the duration (t'A-tB).

The 'delay' IS obviously measured!
It is the time t'A shown by the Earth clock
minus the time tB shown by the clock in the telescope.
(t'A-tB)

So what is (t'A-tB) in Einstein's definition:
"In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
  tB − tA = t'A − tB
"
?

The measure 't_B' is actually NOT measured in units of 'Moon-time', but 
instead both measures t_A and t_B are values, which are based on the 
local time of the observer (called 'A-time' in Einstein's text).


Since time is a LOCAL (!!!!!) measure, the observer simply cannot use 
anything else than his own time measure.

It is therefore illogic to assume, that t_B is measured on the Moon.

It is actually entirely irrelevant, which time a clock on the Moon would 
show or if there is any or if there is anybody to read the time from 
such a clock, because Moon-time was irrelevant.

therefore both measures (t_A and t'_A) are measured on Earth and what 
clocks say on the Moon is unknown.

This is no problem, because t_B (the time of arrival of the signal on 
the Moon) didn't make it into the equation in question.

No.

One reason: there is no clock on the Moon, you could possibly read.

But even if there where a gigantic watch (maintained by the 
Man-in-the-Moon), that clock would show Moon-time in Moon-time-units.

That watch would be very hard to interpret, because it is certainly not 
synchronized with the birth of Christ and will most likely use different 
units.

But supposed we could actually read the values, we certainly would not 
want to subtract such values from an Earth-based time-values.

Therefore, the value t_B MUST be based on Earth-time and measured in 
Earth-time-units.

Would you please make some kind of interpretable statement, like which 
time measure is used on the Moon and which time is meant as equivalent 
Earth time.

My own interpretation is this:

there exist a hypothetical 'timelike sheet', where events happen, which 
are synchronous with our own events on planet Earth.

These events are those, that a hypothetical signal with infinite 
velocity would connect.

Such a signal does not exist, hence such events are initially invisible 
and get visible with a certain delay, which is based on the distance in 
space to those events.

Sure, but not so in Einstein's text.

Actually the word 'delay' or anything equivalent does not occur in his text.

A clock on the Moon cannot show t_B, because the man-in-the-Moon is not 
baptised and the birth of Christ unknown there.

t_B must be a time-value, which is based on Earth-time.

Perhaps you should go back to the message you tried to answer

*facepalm* Is there any limit to your craziness? This is
not even remotely related to anything Einstein wrote.

Clock A and B are clocks involved in a physic apparatus
it is absolutely stupid to assume that clock B would be
operated by unknown aliens on Alpha Centaury (as you
ever did) or the Moon, with unknowns units or origins.

Moreover measures made by clock A and made by clock B can
be communicated to the other clock in order to set them
up properly. THIS IS THE VERY POINT OF THIS PART OF THE
ARTICLE!!! How can you so miserably fail to understand
the obvious.

> t_B must be a time-value, which is based on Earth-time.

It is :

    "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer at A can
     determine the time values of events in the immediate proximity of A
     by finding the positions of the hands which are simultaneous with
     these events. If there is at the point B of space another clock in
     *all respects resembling* the one at A."

Seriously Thomas, what's wrong with you?

If you try to communicate over cosmological distances and attempt to 
synchronize clocks at both ends, you could certainly face the problem, 
that at the other end of such communications are 'aliens'.

Actually all other assumptions are rather strange and in my view far 
stranger than the assumption of aliens.

But WHO sits at the far end of a long distance communication is patently 
irrelevant in the context of SRT, anyhow.

SRT uses a certain 'backdrop', which is a starless void without gravity.

Through this dark space spaceships drift 'inertially'.

This not really real, but a possible assumption for 'thought experiments'.

If so, you could also assume aliens (at not additional cost).

But if you prefer Earth-based aliens, you could also assume, that all 
spaceships mentioned are owned by NASA and have all exactly similar 
clocks onboard of their ships.

But in any case:

you need to make measurements of the delay, if you like to synchronize 
clocks.

(In case of alien aliens, you need to negotiate time units, too.)

This is easy, if both ships involved would not move in respect to each 
other.

In this case (and only in this case !) Einstein's equation is true and 
you could cut the two-way travel in half and get time t_B by deviding 
t'_A-t_A by two.

The problem is here, that t'_A is later than t_B, hence the aliens at 
the far end cannot possibly know it. Therefore, YOU need to calculate 
t_B and send a signal with a coded time value back to B.

This signal (the one from here at A to point B with the time-value t_B), 
needs to be corrected by subtracting the delay from t_B and coding the 
result into the signal.

That is another reason why you should know the delay.

But Einstein didn't even mention the delay-problem with a single word.

Einstein explicitly stated the twp clocks are IDENTICAL. That 
essentially rules out alien monkey business. Also, Einstein never 
mentioned cosmological distances. SR works fine for two clocks in a lab 
10' apart. So your whining is bogus.

'Identical' clocks (actually mentioned were watches) are mechanically 
the same.

But watches of 1905 were adjustable in the rate of ticks, hence could be 
synchronized to the local environment.

That's why it is complicated to synchronize clocks.

First you need to establish an agreement about the time units and tick 
rates.

Theses tick rates already differ with hight (already on planet Earth).

This would require (already on Earth) agrements about the length of the 
second.

To do this we could use some sort of 'master clock', located on or near 
sea-level.

This master station would send out radio signals with timing information 
and all other clocks can adjust themselves to these signals.

But this would still require to know the delay, which is caused by the 
finite speed of light.


A radio signals travel about 7.5 times round the globe in one second.

Since half of an equator length is the maximal distance you could have 
on Earth, you could have a maximum of discrepancy of 1/14 of a second.

This is a very large discrepancy for precision timing purposes, hence 
needs to be corrected.

This is actually simple: simply add the delay to the coded time, which 
is coming with the signal from the master clock.

But you need to know the delay in the first place, if you like to add it.

But for uncertain reasons Einstein didn't mention this, even if 
synchronization over long distances was his topic.

Now you are talking about GR when discussing an SR problem. In SR either 
there is no gravity or the effects of gravity are smaller than 
measurement errors, so is irrelevant.

This was already defined during Einstein's time.

In Einstein's time it was based on the rotation of the earth, now it is 
defined in terms of the Cs atom in a local clock.

But this isn't relevant, the clocks are identical so they have the same 
definition for the length of the second.

What do you think his calculations for t_B are?

so true indeed. Watch this picture, and remark Khazaria. What these "germans" want to do, right now, as it was those days. The unbelievable truth about relativity you don't want to see. And certify.

The country’s citizens are constantly hammered by news of ‘Russian orcs,’ but they still want peace, Nikolay Azarov said 
https://r%74.com/russia/592554-ukrainians-zombified-propaganda-azarov/
However, Azarov also pointed out that a significant part of Ukrainian society has been “zombified” by national TV. “Every 5–10 minutes they get pummeled by news about ‘Russian orcs’. Many are now being brought up in the spirit of hatred, resentment, and so on,” he noted.

He added, however, that this does not mean 90% of Ukrainians are “ready to grab a weapon and run into the trenches and die for no reason.”

Azarov lamented that the Ukrainian political elite has been virtually wiped out over the past 10 years. “There are practically no people there who have even an ounce of common sense left. There are [only] opportunists, blank spaces. They will do whatever the Americans tell them”.

“Ukraine can only recover if its current leaders are replaced, the ex-PM argued.” The same can be said of every Anglo Saxon country. They are khazar goys.

The Ukrainians don't want conflict, why does the military not take out Zelensky? Apparently the far right is protecting the khazar goy mafia in Kiev. Hard to beat those 2 together, and the same is going to happen in the west.

It's an interesting topic, but definetely historic, since present 
Germany has absolutely no intentions to fulfill the plans of the former 
kanzler 'Hitler'.

I personally think, that Greg Hallet was actually correct and 'Hitler' 
was actually an English spy.

https://www.amazon.de/Hitler-Britischer-Agent-Solving-History/dp/0985227818

My own guess was (in extension of the book of Hallet), that it was Noel 
Trevenen Huxley, who went to Germany already in 1913 (together with his 
brother Julian Huxley) and stayed at the home of Isolde Beidler 
(daughter of Richard Wagner) in Munich (Prinzregentplatz 16), to learn 
good German.

The real Hitler was later captured and replaced by the spy in the early 
1920th.

What the hell is it that you call 'Moon-time'? If the moon is considered 
stationary (or moving slow enough not to matter) there is no time 
dilation so 'Moon-time' ticks the same as 'Earth-Time'.

This will be t_B if the clocks are synchronized, or considered set to 
t_B to synchronize them.

It wouldn't matter, since there will be a conversion between 
Moon-time-units and Earth time units (better known as the second).  If 
there are no Moon residents and no (earth origin) clocks there, there 
isn't even such a thing as Moon-time-units so we can use anything we 
want, such as the second. Even if there were little green men using 
Moon-time-units we can *still* use Earth units for Earthbound users, 
converting to Moon-time-units if and when necessary to communicate with 
the little green men.

It appears you are confusing clocks with time. Clocks measure time, not 
clocks are time. The janitor has the very same problem when whining 
about old time definitions based on earth rotation.

We can synchronize the clocks using Einstein's method, so that some

He is using the time it takes the signal to travel (D/c) as the delay.

Yet you are talking about some HUGE clock on the moon viewed using a

Because it is calculated on earth to see what time it is on the moon.

Your obvious confusion here extends to your "420 errors" which are 
nothing more than 420 examples of your confusion.

As Python points out, both clocks are assumed IDENTICAL by Einstein, so 
any hokum about little green men on the moon or Moon-time-units is 
irrelevant so much of what I wrote here isn't applicable to anything. 
The Moon clock is identical to the Earth clock.

The lunar clock is mechanically identical to the terrestrial clock. That 
is to say that it has the same chronotropy.
It is completely ridiculous and completely absurd to take two clocks that 
beat at different rates.
No one would think of putting a clock on the Eiffel Tower that beats six 
times faster than another, placed at the Arc de Triomphe, simply to fool 
around or to distance themselves from science.
As everyone knows, chronotropy is obviously invariant by positional change 
in the same frame of reference.
Now comes HAchl (a true genius in the history of humanity), and he says: 
"Yes, it's true, chronotropy is invariant."

What a man! What a cock! What a God!!!

Problem: the poor idiots who squat on this forum saying, full of 
stupidity, their narcissism, even their hatred: "No, no, Hachel is a 
troll".

Poor fools.

so your moronic ravings of "GR" ,corrections are just
some moronic ravings. Yes, identical clocks are whar
your idiot guru was assuming - and GPS has verified
his absurd assumption and switched it off.

Einstein's definition of simultaneity:
"Let a ray of light start at the “A time” tA from A towards B,
  let it at the “B time” tB be reflected at B in the direction of A,
  and arrive again at A at the “A time” t'A.

  In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
  tB − tA = t'A − tB.
"
What is the time (tB − tA), and what is the time (t'A − tB)?

This has been explained to Thomas several times, for instance there:

Thomas has never understood a single word of this part of Einstein's
paper, while it is obvious to anyone with a minimal intelligence that
the whole point is about light taking propagation time in clock
synchronization. What expose his profound dishonesty is that he
continues to spread the same nonsense *after* it has been shown
to him, in details, how wrong he is.

His arguments is that the word "delay" is not written down explicitly
(LOL!!!) and that clocks A and B could be made by aliens on Alpha
Centaury as if part. I.1 in Einstein's article was about extra-
terrestrial with unknown units and unknown rates. This is pathetically
stupid.

Einstein's paper does not mention that the Moon is not made of cheese,
hence he assumes that the Moon is made of cheese, this is the kind
of "reasoning" Thomas is familiar with.
