...Preface (Many Relativities ) In the first chapter of this book we discuss Einstein’s thought experiment with atomic clocks: A rocket travels at a constant speed v with respect to the earth. In the rocket, a light pulse is emitted by a source from A to a mirror B that reflects it back to A where it is detected. The rocket’s movement and the...
