Being as the earth is now in a fourth-density environment, there is a new constant. As we are in a transition phase, the "old" constant still applies to some degree.Uh oh. Could your speed of light fantasy wish-fulfillment of a new constant be incorrect? Hey, who cares. What matters is if you resonate with what you want to see manifest, regardless of reality.
abstract, Times of Flight between a Source and a Detector observed from a GPS satelite Wrote:The Michelson-Morley experiment shows that the experimental outcome of an interference experiment does not depend on the constant velocity of the setup with respect to an inertial frame of reference. From this one can conclude the existence of an invariant velocity of light. However it does not follow from their experiment that a time-of-flight is reference frame independent. In fact the theory of special relativity predicts that the distance between the production location of a particle and the detection location will be changed in all reference frames which have a velocity component parallel to the baseline separating source and detector in a foton time-of-flight experiment. For the OPERA experiment we find that the associated correction is in the order of 32 ns. Because, judging from the information provided, the correction needs to be applied twice in the OPERA experiment the total correction to the final results is in the order of 64 ns. Thus bringing the apparent velocities of neutrino's back to a value not significantly different from the speed of light. We end this short letter by suggesting an analysis of the experimental data which would illustrate the effects described.
