    Einstein wrote about a process for synchronization, which didn't take
    the delay into account, which is caused by the time needed to transfer a signal.


    E.g. if there is a large clock on the Moon, which we could read out by a
    large telescope, the clock there would show a time ~1s too early.

    This one second is caused by the delay of the signal from Moon to Earth
    and not because the remote clock is desynchronized.

    If the remote clock would move, say, away at 0.5 c, than things get more complicated, because the so called Doppler effect gets relevant.

    This would alter the wavelength of the received signal and also the
    apparent time at the remote station (and also the apparent form of the
    remote object)

    Now, Einstein didn't consider Wavelength at all in his paper 'On the electrodynamics of moving bodies' and called the apparent affect upon
    the remote clock 'time dilation' and the apparent deformation 'length contraction'.

    It would have been better to simply measure the delay and add that value
    to the apparent remote time.

    But that wasn't done by Einstein. Actually this delay wasn't even mentioned.

    So, in a way, Einstein used an extremely convoluted way to calculate the Doppler effect and ascribed the effects to the remote object, instead of
    to the delay caused by the finite speed of light.

    You can in principle sync a clock on the Moon with a clock on
    the Earth if we do it when the distance Moon-Earth is fairly
    constant for a few seconds, that is at the apogee or perigee,
    and the observer at Earth and the observer on the Moon are
    where they will see the other body at zenith.

    The clocks wouldn't stay synchronous for long because
    the clocks are at different gravitational potential.
    But let's ignore this problem for now.

    ---------------------

    We have an observer at point A on the Earth and another observer
    at point B on the Moon. The observers have transceivers so they
    can communicate with each other.

    We have to equal clocks C_A and C_B. They are not synced in any
    way, but they are using the same time unit second.
    The clocks run at the same rate as defined by SI.

    At point A the observer has the following instruments:
    Clock C_A, a light-detector, and a powerful laser.
    The computer can register the time shown by C_A when
    the laser is fired, and when the light-detector registers
    a laser pulse from the Moon.

    At point B the observer has the following instruments:
    Clock C_B, a light-detector, a mirror and a computer.
    The computer can register the time shown by C_B when
    the light-detector registers a laser pulse from the Earth.

    Now the observer at A fires the laser.
    At this instant, C_A is showing tA seconds.

    When the laser pulse hits the mirror and the light-detector at B,
    Clock C_B shows tx seconds.

    Some time later the light detector at A registers
    the laser pulse reflected by the mirror at B.
    At this instant Clock C_A shows t'A seconds.

    Now the observer at Earth can communicate with the Moon observer
    and tell him that clock C_A showed tA when the laser pulse was
    sent, and t'A when the reflected laser pulse was received.

    The Moon observer knows that according to Einstein:
    "The two clocks synchronise if tB reA tA = t'A reA tB."

    So he knows that to be in sync, clock C_B should have shown
    tB = (tA + t'A)/2

    But since it showed tx, he must add the correction:
    +| = tB - tx = (tA + t'A)/2 - tx

    So when he corrects the clock C_B with +| seconds,
    it will be in synch with clock C_A.

    Do you miss a delay in the above?

    No, but in Einstein's paper.

    Actually I can almost sing 'On the Electrodynamics of moving bodies' and
    can assure you, that 'transit delay' or anything similar was neither calculated, measured or even mentioned.

    Einstein seemingly assumed, that the actual reading of the remote clock
    would be the remote time.

    To eleminate this error, you would need to 'ping' the remote station,
    measure the delay for a round trip, cut that in half (supposed the
    remote station is in relative rest) and add this value to your own time.

    Then you need to encode the own time plus delay into a signal and send
    that to the remote station.

    The remote station would need to decode the signal, extract the time
    value and adjust the own clockks according to that value.

    But Einstein didn't say anything like that.

    This problem was simply missing entirely in his paper.

    The main point is this:

    a 'clock' can also be a device, which has no hands and shows time values
    by electronic means. To this value you need to add the delay.

    These values need to be encoded somehow into a carrier signal. The
    encoded signal needs to be sent to the remote station, where someone
    decodes it.

    The sending station needs to know the delay in advance, hence had to
    measure it by measuring some sort of reflected message.

    This is equvalent to a 'ping' on the internet, but can be any kind of mechanism.

    If you don't do that, your process of synchronization is wrong.

    At this instant, C_A is showing tA seconds.

    When the laser pulse hits the mirror and the light-detector at B,
    Clock C_B shows tx seconds.

    Some time later the light detector at A registers
    the laser pulse reflected by the mirror at B.
    At this instant Clock C_A shows t'A seconds.

    Now the observer at Earth can communicate with the Moon observer
    and tell him that clock C_A showed tA when the laser pulse was
    sent, and t'A when the reflected laser pulse was received.

    The Moon observer knows that according to Einstein:
    -a-a"The two clocks synchronise if-a tB reA tA = t'A reA tB."

    So he knows that to be in sync, clock C_B should have shown
    tB = (tA + t'A)/2

    But since it showed tx, he must add the correction:
    +| = tB - tx = (tA + t'A)/2 - tx

    So when he corrects the clock C_B with +| seconds,
    it will be in synch with clock C_A.

    Do you miss a delay in the above?


    No, but in Einstein's paper.

    Actually I can almost sing 'On the Electrodynamics of moving bodies' and
    can assure you, that 'transit delay' or anything similar was neither calculated, measured or even mentioned.

    Quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity:
    "we establish by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light
    to travel from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel
    from B to A."

    "the time required by light to travel from A to B" _is_
    the 'transit delay' you say is never mentioned.

    Another quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB."

    If the clocks synchronise, then the transit delay for
    the pulse is tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    The transit delay is _measured_!

    So the transit delay is calculated, measured and mentioned.

    How did you manage to miss that?
    You must have a serious reading comprehension problem!


    Einstein seemingly assumed, that the actual reading of the remote clock would be the remote time.

    ??? Is the clock at B the "remote clock"?

    Do you mean that the actual reading of the clock at B
    is _not_ the time showed by clock B?

    Or what do you mean?


    To eleminate this error, you would need to 'ping' the remote station, measure the delay for a round trip, cut that in half (supposed the
    remote station is in relative rest) and add this value to your own time.

    There is no error to correct.


    Then you need to encode the own time plus delay into a signal and send
    that to the remote station.

    Good Grief! :-D


    1. The observer at A reads the time tA when the light pulse
    is sent. He reads the clock at A!

    2. The observer at B reads the time tB when the light pulse
    is reflected. He reads the clock at B!

    3. The observer at A reads the time t'A when he receives
    the reflected light pulse. He reads the clock at A!

    These are all the measurements that are done.
    Only local clocks are read.
    There is no "reading of the remote clock"!

    The observer at A has _measured_ the transit delay.
    It is (t'A-tA)/2 ! How did you manage to miss that?

    To check if the clock at B is synchronous the observers have
    to communicate. They can do it by shouting, send it by snail mail,
    E-post, a mobile phone or whatever.
    And there is not necessary to encrypt anything!

    If they find that their clocks are not synchronous, the clock
    at B can be corrected as I explained above,




    The remote station would need to decode the signal, extract the time
    value and adjust the own clockks according to that value.

    But Einstein didn't say anything like that.

    Quite. Einstein wasn't stupid!

    Now you can read my previous post quoted above again.

    But with your serious reading comprehension problem,
    you will probably not understand it.


    This problem was simply missing entirely in his paper.

    E.g. if there is a large clock on the Moon, which we could read out
    by a large telescope, the clock there would show a time ~1s too early.

    You can in principle sync a clock on the Moon with a clock on
    the Earth if we do it when the distance Moon-Earth is fairly
    constant for a few seconds, that is at the apogee or perigee,
    and the observer at Earth and the observer on-a the Moon are
    where they will see the other body at zenith.

    The clocks wouldn't stay synchronous for long because
    the clocks are at different gravitational potential.
    But let's ignore this problem for now.

    ---------------------

    Read this again when you have read my response below:


    We have an observer at point A on the Earth and another observer
    at point B on the Moon. The observers have transceivers so they
    can communicate with each other.

    We have to equal clocks C_A and C_B. They are not synced in any
    way, but they are using the same time unit second.
    The clocks run at the same rate as defined by SI.

    At point A the observer has the following instruments:
    Clock C_A, a light-detector, and a powerful laser.
    The computer can register the time shown by C_A when
    the laser is fired, and when the light-detector registers
    a laser pulse from the Moon.

    At point B the observer has the following instruments:
    Clock C_B, a light-detector, a mirror and a computer.
    The computer can register the time shown by C_B when
    the light-detector registers a laser pulse from the Earth.

    Einstein never mentions the "reading of the remote clocks". Such readings
    does not intervene in Einstein's procedure.

    But none of the above was actually present in Einstein's paper.

    The only thing, which can actually be found is an equation, which would allow you to calculate the delay yourself.

    It a way you're right but don't forget that Einstein describe a procedure
    to *check* if two clocks are synchronized, there "delays" appears even if
    not called so (because it is sooo obvious except for kooks like you) : t_B
    - t_A and t'_A - t_B are these "delays".

    He didn't provide details about how to deduce an offset to be applied to clocks so that these "delays" are equal, again this is quite obvious
    (except for cranks like you).

    But that is, of course, not enough, since Einstein had to do that

    It is enough, except for idiots like you.

    What you call "delay" is obviously the transit time for
    the light to go from A to B or from B to A.

    Quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity:
    "we establish by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light
    to travel from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel
    from B to A."

    "the time required by light to travel from A to B" _is_
    the 'transit time' you say is never mentioned.

    Another quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB."

    If the clocks synchronise, then the transit time for
    the pulse is tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    The transit time is _measured_!

    So the transit time is calculated, measured and mentioned.

    How did you manage to miss that?
    You must have a serious reading comprehension problem!


    BTW, why do you call the transit time a "delay"?



    Also possible would be any statement, where Einstein wrote, that he had
    the intention to correct the actually reading of the remote clocks time
    by the delay for the signal transit.

    No "remote clock" is read!
    You have been explained this over and over by me and others.
    How slow is it possible to be?

    I have posted this before, READ IT!

    1. The observer at A reads the time tA when
    the light pulse is sent.
    The observer at A reads the clock at A!
    =======================================

    2. The observer at B reads the time tB when
    the light pulse is reflected.
    The observer at B reads the clock at B!
    =======================================

    3. The observer at A reads the time t'A when
    he receives the reflected light pulse.
    The observer at A reads the clock at A!
    =======================================

    These are all the measurements that are done.
    Only local clocks are read.
    There is no "reading of the remote clock"!

    The observer at A has _measured_ the transit time.
    It is (t'A-tA)/2 ! How did you manage to miss that?

    To check if the clock at B is synchronous the observers have
    to communicate. They can do it by shouting, send it by snail mail,
    E-post, a mobile phone or whatever.
    And there is not necessary to encrypt anything!

    When B has got tA and t'A from A, he can check if:
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB

    If it is, B's clock is synchronous with clock A.
    If it isn't the observer at B will understand
    what he must do to bring them in sync.

    What "delay" do you miss in the expression:
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB?

    This is "transit time A-B" = "transit time B-A"

    Do you miss some other "delay" than the transit time?


    But none of the above was actually present in Einstein's paper.

    The only thing, which can actually be found is an equation, which would allow you to calculate the delay yourself.

    So you mean that when he said "transit time A-B" = "transit time B-A"
    then he haven't said how he would deal with the transit time?

    How do you think Einstein should have dealt with the transit time?

    If we have a 'stationary' position 'A' and and a remote position 'B',
    which are both equipped with their own local time (named 'A-time' and 'B-time'), then an observer at 'A' knows only 'A-time'.


    To illustrate this problem I place 'A' at Houston Space Center in
    Houston, Texas and B at 'Tranquility base', Moon.

    Now Houston could send a signal to the Moon, which gets reflected there.

    'A' can only use 'A-time', because Houston cannot read the clocks upon
    the Moon.

    t_B is therefore unknown in A and cannot be used.

    But the delay could be measured anyhow, because t_B is irrelevant for
    the measurement of the delay.

    A sends simply a 'ping' to the Moon and waits for the reflected signal
    and measures that delay.

    Since that is for two ways, Houston would cut that value in half and
    assume, this would be the one-way delay.

    that procedere would have be necessary, but wasn't meantioned by Einstein.

    That's why I had interpreted Einstein's words, as if he had no intention
    to do that.


    This is "transit time A-B" = "transit time B-A"

    Do you miss some other "delay" than the transit time?


    Any observer can only use the own local time and not the time of the
    remote station.

    It is therefore impossible to calculate t_B - t_A or t_A' - t_B.


    But none of the above was actually present in Einstein's paper.

    The only thing, which can actually be found is an equation, which
    would allow you to calculate the delay yourself.

    E-post, a mobile phone or whatever.
    And there is not necessary to encrypt anything!"

    When B is at the Moon, observer A would obviously use
    a radio transmitter, and B would have a receiver.

    PBA wrote:
    " When B has got tA and t'A from A, he can check if:
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB"

    If it is, B's clock is synchronous with clock A.
    If it isn't the observer at B will understand
    what he must do to bring them in sync."

    You will probably not understand how, so here is what
    I have explained before:

    Remember that clock B will probably not be synchronous.
    So let B's reading of the clock be tx.

    The Moon observer knows that according to Einstein:
    "The two clocks synchronise if tB reA tA = t'A reA tB."

    So he knows that to be in sync, clock at B should have shown
    tB = (tA + t'A)/2

    But since it showed tx, he must add the correction:
    +| = tB - tx = (tA + t'A)/2 - tx

    So when he corrects the clock at B with +| seconds,
    it will be in synch with clock at A.

    ----------------------------

    Note that B doesn't have to calculate the transit time measured
    by A to see if the clocks are in sync, but he must calculate it to
    correct the clock B if they are not.

    If you think that Einstein should have explained how clock B
    could be corrected if it wasn't in sync, remember that all
    but ignoramuses will understand how it can be done.

    If you don't, that's YOUR problem, not Einstein's.

    Is it still some "delay" you claim Einstein has failed to correct for?

    If we have a 'stationary' position 'A' and and a remote position 'B',
    which are both equipped with their own local time (named 'A-time' and
    'B-time'), then an observer at 'A' knows only 'A-time'.


    To illustrate this problem I place 'A' at Houston Space Center in
    Houston, Texas and B at 'Tranquility base', Moon.

    So A is Houston and B is the Moon.


    Now Houston could send a signal to the Moon, which gets reflected there.

    'A' can only use 'A-time', because Houston cannot read the clocks upon
    the Moon.

    Sure.

    It is irrelevant, anyhow, because the qunatity t_B is not important in Einstein's equation, because he actually used only t_A.

    -a-a =======================================


    But the delay could be measured anyhow, because t_B is irrelevant for
    the measurement of the delay.

    A sends simply a 'ping' to the Moon and waits for the reflected signal
    and measures that delay.

    Since that is for two ways, Houston would cut that value in half and
    assume, this would be the one-way delay.


    PBA:
    " The observer at A has _measured_ the transit time.
    -a It is (t'A-tA)/2 !"

    But Houston can do nothing with this information,
    so why should they calculate the transit-time?


    that procedere would have be necessary, but wasn't meantioned by
    Einstein.

    The "procedure" which is necessary is that
    the observer at Earth and the observer at Moon communicate.

    The observer at A has measured tA and t'A
    The observer at B has measured tB.

    But how do you communicate with the 'man on the Moon'?

    And does he use clocks?
    And if he/she/it does, than what time-units do these clocks use?

    The hole dammed thing is total nonsense and full of errrors from start
    to finish.

    I have used the example of a Earth-Moon communcation as an exageration
    and as example, why Einstein's method was nonsense.

    But the main reason was, that if you have two remote clocks out of synch
    and want to synchronize them by Einstein's method, you need to decide,
    which clock is the 'master clock'.

    You simply cannot use both clocks, because that would cause something,
    which in computer science is called 'dead lock'.

    In simple words:

    if you tune clock B to clock A, than you should not tune clock A to
    clock B. You simply tune the remote clock to the time of the 'master
    clock', which was A in this case.

    But you could also tune clock A to clock B.

    But you should not try both.

    This would result in this:
    B (on Moon) is set in 1s in advance, because A (on Earth) tells B to do so
    the B finds, that A is behind and had to turn the clock one second ahead

    A send then a signal to B which tells B to advance by one second

    ...
    and so forth.

    Symmetry is, of course, important, but Einstein's method wasn't
    symmetric, because of the above.

    The time 'B-time' gets lost and is irrelevant anyhow, if you tune clock
    B to 'A-time'.

    Symmetry could be achieved, if the remote clock's reading is corrected
    by the transit delay.

    But Einstein did neither calculate the delay, nor had the intention to
    correct the remote clock's reading.


    It is irrelevant, anyhow, because the qunatity t_B is not important in
    Einstein's equation, because he actually used only t_A.

    I am an idiot since I thought it must be possible to make
    Thomas Heger understand something.
    The method of synchronization had to be symmetric. But Einstein's method wasn't.

    Therefore Einstein's method was wrong.

    It's that simple!

    But you could come to the same conclusion by simply thinking about the problem.

    Then you would find, that a delay caused by the finite speed of light
    would make remote clocks seemingly have a time too early.

    This delay is, of course, identical to the run-time of the signal,
    because that is, what causes the apparent delay.

    But the observer at A reads the clock at A only!
    It is the observer at B who reads the clock at B!

    This is explicitly described by Einstein:
    "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

    Sure.

    But there ain't no observers on the Moon.

    ! :-D



    The hole dammed thing is total nonsense and full of errrors from start

    So in which hole of yours is there many errrors?
    (Sorry. Couldn't resist!)


    I have used the example of a Earth-Moon communcation as an exageration
    and as example, why Einstein's method was nonsense.

    But the main reason was, that if you have two remote clocks out of synch
    and want to synchronize them by Einstein's method, you need to decide,

    Of course.
    In my example the clock at B is synched to the master clock at A.

    Is that a problem?


    You simply cannot use both clocks, because that would cause something,
    which in computer science is called 'dead lock'.

    You have to use both clock A and clock B to sync clock B to clock A.

    Are you saying it is a deadlock in my example above?


    In simple words:

    if you tune clock B to clock A, than you should not tune clock A to
    clock B. You simply tune the remote clock to the time of the 'master
    clock', which was A in this case.
    As done in my example above.


    But you could also tune clock A to clock B.

    Of course you could.


    But you should not try both.

    You seem to say that you shouldn't try to sync
    two clocks to each other without knowing
    which should be synched to which.

    This is obviously impossible, or rather meaningless.


    This would result in this:
    B (on Moon) is set in 1s in advance, because A (on Earth) tells B to do so the B finds, that A is behind and had to turn the clock one second ahead

    A send then a signal to B which tells B to advance by one second

    ...
    and so forth.

    Don't you think it is a bit silly to state that
    you shouldn't try to sync two clocks to each other
    without knowing which should be synched to which?

    It is like stating:
    "You shouldn't try to do an impossible stupidity."


    Symmetry is, of course, important, but Einstein's method wasn't
    symmetric, because of the above.

    Right.
    You sync one clock to another.

    You can't sync two clocks to each other without
    knowing which should be synched to which.

    In this sense synchronisation can't be symmetric.

    So why do you think symmetry is important?


    The time 'B-time' gets lost and is irrelevant anyhow, if you tune clock
    B to 'A-time'.

    The "wrong" clock B is corrected. Is that a problem?


    Symmetry could be achieved, if the remote clock's reading is corrected
    by the transit delay.

    Thomas Heger believes that tB is the time the observer at A
    has visually observed clock B to show at the time tA when
    the light pulse was sent from point A.

    If that were true, the observer at A would at the time t'A,
    when he receives the reflected pulse from B, know that when
    the pulse was reflected from B, clock B should have shown:
    tB + "delay" = tB + (t'A-TA)/2 .

    Please explain how this can make clock B synchronous with clock A.

    Remember you said : "there ain't no observers on the Moon".


    But Einstein did neither calculate the delay, nor had the intention to correct the remote clock's reading.

    Einstein explicitly said what the "delay" was several times.
    I have told you several times before:

    What you call "delay" is obviously the transit time for
    the light to go from A to B or from B to A.

    Quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity:
    "we establish by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light
    to travel from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel
    from B to A."

    "the time required by light to travel from A to B" _is_
    the 'transit time' you say is never mentioned.

    Another quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB."

    If the clocks synchronise, then the transit time for
    the pulse is tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    The transit time is _measured_!

    So the transit time is calculated, measured and mentioned.


    The method of synchronization had to be symmetric. But Einstein's method wasn't.

    Right.
    You sync one clock to another.

    You can't sync two clocks to each other without
    knowing which should be synched to which.

    In this sense synchronisation can't be symmetric.

    So why do claim it must be symmetric?

    Therefore Einstein's method was wrong.

    It's that simple!

    But you could come to the same conclusion by simply thinking about the problem.

    Then you would find, that a delay caused by the finite speed of light
    would make remote clocks seemingly have a time too early.

    Because you still believe that clock B is visually observed by
    the observer at A.

    But it isn't, so it won't.


    This delay is, of course, identical to the run-time of the signal,
    because that is, what causes the apparent delay.

    TH
    You will keep believing that the clock at B is visually
    observed by the observer at A, and you will keep believing
    that you can sync the clock at B and the clock at A
    in asymmetric way without an observer at point B.

    Right? :-D

    If we have a 'stationary' position 'A' and and a remote position
    'B', which are both equipped with their own local time (named 'A- >>>>>> time' and 'B-time'), then an observer at 'A' knows only 'A-time'.


    To illustrate this problem I place 'A' at Houston Space Center in >>>>>> Houston, Texas and B at 'Tranquility base', Moon.

    So A is Houston and B is the Moon in my example posted before.


    I have posted the following before:

    1. The observer at A reads the time tA when
    -a-a the light pulse is sent.
    -a-a The observer at A reads the clock at A!
    -a-a =======================================

    2. The observer at B reads the time tB when
    -a-a the light pulse is reflected.
    -a-a The observer at B reads the clock at B!
    -a-a =======================================

    3. The observer at A reads the time t'A when
    -a-a he receives the reflected light pulse.
    -a-a The observer at A reads the clock at A!
    -a-a =======================================

    -aThese are all the measurements that are done.
    -aOnly local clocks are read.
    -aThere is no "reading of the remote clock"!

    Thomas Heger believes that clock B is visually read
    by the observer at point A.

    But the observer at A reads the clock at A only!
    It is the observer at B who reads the clock at B!

    This is explicitly described by Einstein:
    "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, it is possible for an observer at B to
    determine the time values of events in the immediate neighbourhood
    of B.
    "


    -aTo check if the clock at B is synchronous -athe observers have to >>>>> communicate. They can do -ait by shouting, E-post, a mobile phone, radio >>>>> -aor whatever.

    -aWhen B has got tA and t'A from A, he can check if:
    -a tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB

    And B can calculate the "delay" (transit time) = (t'A-TA)/2


    -aIf it is, B's clock is synchronous with clock A.

    That is, clock B is the time when A sent the pulse +
    the calculated "delay", TB = tA + (t'A-TA)/2 = (tA + t'A)/2


    -aIf it isn't, the observer at B will have to correct
    -athe clock at B to make it synchronous with the clock -aat A.

    -aRemember that clock B will probably not be synchronous.
    -aSo let B's reading of the clock be tx.

    -aThe observer at B knows that according to Einstein:
    -a"The two clocks synchronise if-a tB reA tA = t'A reA tB."

    -aSo he knows that to be in sync with the clock at A, -athe clock at B >>>>> should have shown tB = (tA + t'A)/2

    -aBut since it showed tx, he must add the correction:
    -a-a +| = tB - tx = (tA + t'A)/2 - tx
    -ato the clock at B.


    After this correction, clock B will always show the same
    as the master clock A. A and B are synchronous.

    Sure.

    But there ain't no observers on the Moon.

    ! :-D



    The hole dammed thing is total nonsense and full of errrors from start
    to finish.

    So in which hole of yours is there many errrors?
    (Sorry. Couldn't resist!)


    I have used the example of a Earth-Moon communcation as an exageration
    and as example, why Einstein's method was nonsense.

    But the main reason was, that if you have two remote clocks out of synch
    and want to synchronize them by Einstein's method, you need to decide,
    which clock is the 'master clock'.

    Of course.
    In my example the clock at B is synched to the master clock at A.

    Is that a problem?


    You simply cannot use both clocks, because that would cause something,
    which in computer science is called 'dead lock'.

    You have to use both clock A and clock B to sync clock B to clock A.

    Are you saying it is a deadlock in my example above?


    In simple words:

    if you tune clock B to clock A, than you should not tune clock A to
    clock B. You simply tune the remote clock to the time of the 'master
    clock', which was A in this case.
    As done in my example above.


    But you could also tune clock A to clock B.

    Of course you could.


    But you should not try both.

    You seem to say that you shouldn't try to sync
    two clocks to each other without knowing
    which should be synched to which.

    This is obviously impossible, or rather meaningless.


    This would result in this:
    B (on Moon) is set in 1s in advance, because A (on Earth) tells B to do so >> the B finds, that A is behind and had to turn the clock one second ahead

    A send then a signal to B which tells B to advance by one second

    ...
    and so forth.

    Don't you think it is a bit silly to state that
    you shouldn't try to sync two clocks to each other
    without knowing which should be synched to which?

    It is like stating:
    "You shouldn't try to do an impossible stupidity."


    Symmetry is, of course, important, but Einstein's method wasn't
    symmetric, because of the above.

    Right.
    You sync one clock to another.

    You can't sync two clocks to each other without
    knowing which should be synched to which.

    In this sense synchronisation can't be symmetric.

    So why do you think symmetry is important?


    The time 'B-time' gets lost and is irrelevant anyhow, if you tune clock
    B to 'A-time'.

    The "wrong" clock B is corrected. Is that a problem?


    Symmetry could be achieved, if the remote clock's reading is corrected
    by the transit delay.

    Thomas Heger believes that tB is the time the observer at A
    has visually observed clock B to show at the time tA when
    the light pulse was sent from point A.

    It is interesting to note that Einstein actually considered using such a "method" to immediately rule it out:

    "We might, of course, content ourselves with time values determined by an observer stationed together with the watch at the origin of the
    co-ordinates, and co-ordinating the corresponding positions of the hands
    with light signals, given out by every event to be timed, and reaching him through empty space. But this co-ordination has the disadvantage that it
    is not independent of the standpoint of the observer with the watch or
    clock, as we know from experience. We arrive at a much more practical determination along the following line of thought."

    This is also what Hachel considers the "right" way to consider the time coordinate attached to such an event.

    Thomas Heger believes that tB is the time the observer at A
    has visually observed clock B to show at the time tA when
    the light pulse was sent from point A.

    It is interesting to note that Einstein actually considered using
    such a "method" to immediately rule it out:

    Of course Einstein never considered this to be a usable way to define
    the time coordinate of a frame of reference. His point was to
    explain why this was not a usable way to define the time coordinate.

    (This was probably what you meant with "immediately rule it out")

    In principle it could be used. Good luck expressing Newton law of motion with that but it could be done. Coordinates systems can be quite arbitrary.

    Sure.
    Generally the time coordinate can be defined in any way you wish.

    But Einstein's time coordinate in -o1 is precisely defined.
    That was why he first had to define simultaneity.

    Einstein:
    "It is essential to have time defined by means of stationary
    clocks in the stationary system, and the time now defined
    being appropriate to the stationary system we call it
    'the time of the stationary system'."

    The "time defined by stationary clocks in the stationary system"
    is the time coordinate. And the clocks have to be synchronous
    according to the definition of simultaneity.

    The metric: (criad-a)-# = (criadt)-# reAdx-# reAdy-#reAdz-#
    works only with time coordinates as defined by Einstein.
    Same with the Lorentz transform in it usual form.

    I don't think it would be possible to express the metric
    and the LT with the time coordinate described below.

    "We might, of course, content ourselves with time values determined
    by an observer stationed together with the watch at the origin of the
    co- ordinates, and co-ordinating the corresponding positions of the
    hands with light signals, given out by every event to be timed, and
    reaching him through empty space. But this co-ordination has the
    disadvantage that it is not independent of the standpoint of the
    observer with the watch or clock, as we know from experience. We
    arrive at a much more practical determination along the following
    line of thought."

    This is also what Hachel considers the "right" way to consider the
    time coordinate attached to such an event.

    You probably meant Heger.

    No, Hachel actually thinks that what should be done is what Heger thinks Einstein did. Cranks are funny sometimes...

    Quite.
    And with such a time coordinate it is indeed impossible to sync clocks!


    But Heger doesn't know what a time coordinate is.

    Heger's problem is that when he read Einstein's sync method
    for the first time, he didn't understand that clock A
    and clock B were read by local observers, he thought they
    both were visually observed by an observer at A.
    And then the transit time must be added to the time observed
    in the telescope to find what the B clock showed simultaneous
    with the observation.

    When Heger has got one idea into his head, he will never admit
    that it is wrong.

    Same for Hachel Efye

    That means that according to you, a "second" is 86400th of a "day."

    But the length of a "day" will vary between 86380 and 86430 SI-seconds.

    That means that according to you, a "second" is 86400th of a "day."

    But the length of a "day" will vary between 86380 and 86430 SI-seconds.


    But it is not stated which day the definition

    The length of a foot varies even more. Does

    So is it the length of your second or the Si-second that is varying?

    Relativity, poor trash. Points of view.
    Anyway, SI second is 9 192 631 770 local Cs

    in GPS is - 9 192 631 770 and 9 192 631 774.

    To illustrate this problem I place 'A' at Houston Space Center in >>>>>> Houston, Texas and B at 'Tranquility base', Moon.

    So A is Houston and B is the Moon in my example posted before.


    I have posted the following before:

    1. The observer at A reads the time tA when
    -a-a the light pulse is sent.
    -a-a The observer at A reads the clock at A!
    -a-a =======================================

    2. The observer at B reads the time tB when
    -a-a the light pulse is reflected.
    -a-a The observer at B reads the clock at B!
    -a-a =======================================

    3. The observer at A reads the time t'A when
    -a-a he receives the reflected light pulse.
    -a-a The observer at A reads the clock at A!
    -a-a =======================================

    -aThese are all the measurements that are done.
    -aOnly local clocks are read.
    -aThere is no "reading of the remote clock"!

    Thomas Heger believes that clock B is visually read
    by the observer at point A.

    But the observer at A reads the clock at A only!
    It is the observer at B who reads the clock at B!

    This is explicitly described by Einstein:
    -a"If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer at A
    -a can determine the time values of events in the immediate proximity
    -a of A by finding the positions of the hands which are simultaneous
    -a with these events.
    -a If there is at the point B of space another clock in all respects
    -a resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer at B to
    -a determine the time values of events in the immediate neighbourhood
    -a of B.
    "

    Sure, that's true and also what Einstein wrote.

    But I took an Earth Moon communication as an example, where there wasn't anybody to read a clock on the Moon.

    If there are actually observers at the remote station with clocks and at
    least some intelligence, we would get a lot of now problems.

    For instance we need to find ways to communicate with these observers at
    the remote station to beginn with.

    Then we need to negotiate the meaning of time and of time units and how
    long those units are.

    It makes no sense to assume, that observers at a place near, say, Alpha Centaaury are very interested in Earth time.

    But we could eventually convince them to set up a special 'Earth clock'
    there, which is synchronized with Earth time.

    Be then we need to tell them 'Earth time', if we want them to set this
    'Earth clock' to Earth time.

    This would require from the Earth station to measure the delay from here
    to there.

    Then we would add this value to our current time, encode the result and
    send that to the remote station.

    But, of course, that wasn't, what Einstein wanted to do.

    Einstein, "Think of light's speed as an arbitrarily high unreachable
    limit that's not infinity. This way we don't have infinity in our theory
    while we kind of do."

    The idea is that Einstein has a theory about theories, and sometimes
    that's called the "philosophical" side, since he expects his model
    physicist to necessarily be provided 100% instructions that are
    mathematical and that they're relayable. Then, "relaying infinity,
    and mathematically", gets quite involved that Foundations of physics
    has that Foundations of mathematics _owes_ physics, and I've said
    this about a thousand times, _owes_ physics more and better mathematics
    of infinity, and continuity, the more "replete" after the tenuous
    "complete" so axiomatized to exist in the modern standard linear
    curriculum and tower of results.

    So, Einstein didn't have available some of the more relevant aspects
    of mathematical infinity, and continuity, while, today we can sort of
    say we do.

    It's sort of cool that modern physics the Big Science has very well
    established the 7-sigmas called dark matter one way and dark energy
    another, and very well established non-locality with regards to usual
    theories our premier theories the GR and QM, because very many or mostly
    all the particulars fields or sectors in physics, have otherwise
    their usual more or less well-known empirically evident "effects", say,
    so that we can rather readily show lots of 20'th century hand-waving, fudge-coating, wall-papering, coattail-riding non-scientific
    not-physicsts not-mathematicians the door.

    Here in one of my recend podcasts "Logos 2000: Foundations briefly" you
    can find an hour or so spoken description of the requirements and
    desiderata of mathematical foundations of continuity, then infinity,
    more and better and required and paleo-classical and post-modern,
    "A Theory", a study of Foundations so briefly, that things like
    "giant mechanical thorough reasoners" arrive at.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjtXZ5mBVOc

    One of my favorite books of Einstein is "Out of My Later Years",
    he most thoroughly if delicately establishes a "the time" and
    two separate "spacial" and "spatial" definitions for SR and GR,
    and _does_ establish that RoS is non-local, since his requirements
    of "a good theory, eventually" is a total field theory.

    Since it's his last word, Einstein's, "Out of My Later Years",
    then is for making both a critical and a generous reading of it,
    if it's supposed to be right at all and not merely so much nothing.

    Yeah I figure I've written some thousands of essays to
    sci.math.relativity, many quite longer than this one.

    An SI second is the duration of 9,192,631,770 cycles of
    the radiation corresponding to the hyperfine transition
    frequency of the cesium-133 atom.

    It is the same everywhere and always.


    GPS second IS NOT your ISO absurd, QED.
    No timekeeping system can rely on it,
    would loose the synchronization.
    And you don't know the difference between SI and ISO! :-D

    The old definition of second was that it is a 86400th of
    a mean solar day. The mean sun is a theoretical sun which
    is moving at constant speed around the Earth in the equatorial plane.
    It moves once around the Earth in 24 hours = 86400 seconds.
    The mean sun is at longitude 0rU# at 12:00:00 GMT.

    To find the mean length of a solar day you have to observe
    the Sun for a very long time. This was done at Greenwich,
    and the pendulum clock at Greenwich showed mean solar time.
    This clock was the standard clock, and all clocks on Earth
    were synchronised to this clock. The clock is now on museum
    so it now impossible to sync clocks to it.

    So now the SI definition of second is the only usable definition.
    The rotation of the Earth is slowing down, so in 2008 the duration
    of a mean solar day was 86400.002 SI seconds.

    You will of course understand nothing of this.

    This is getting boring, so now I won't ridicule you any more.

    At least not for a while. :-)

    That means that according to you, a "second" is 86400th of a "day."

    Thomas Heger believes that tB is the time the observer at A
    has visually observed clock B to show at the time tA when
    the light pulse was sent from point A.

    It is interesting to note that Einstein actually considered using
    such a "method" to immediately rule it out:

    Of course Einstein never considered this to be a usable way to define
    the time coordinate of a frame of reference. His point was to
    explain why this was not a usable way to define the time coordinate.

    (This was probably what you meant with "immediately rule it out")

    "We might, of course, content ourselves with time values determined
    by an observer stationed together with the watch at the origin of the
    co- ordinates, and co-ordinating the corresponding positions of the
    hands with light signals, given out by every event to be timed, and
    reaching him through empty space. But this co-ordination has the
    disadvantage that it is not independent of the standpoint of the
    observer with the watch or clock, as we know from experience. We
    arrive at a much more practical determination along the following
    line of thought."

    This is also what Hachel considers the "right" way to consider the
    time coordinate attached to such an event.

    You probably meant Heger.
    But Heger doesn't know what a time coordinate is.

    Heger's problem is that when he read Einstein's sync method
    for the first time, he didn't understand that clock A
    and clock B were read by local observers, he thought they

    An author tells a story which he wants to tell. It's his duty to make

    If the author makes an error of whatever kind, this error is his and
    only his. Especially it wouldn't be my error, if I interpret his words
    in a legal way. (if not, that would be my error, of course)

    That's why I have all rights to make guesses about what the author
    actually tries to say by searching for an interpretation, which would
    fit to his words.

    Upon the interpretation of Einstein's synchronization method I had to
    chew for a while.

    But the only fitting solution was, that Einstein actually wanted to
    ignore the delay and take the apparent reading of the remote time by
    'visually'* reading the remote clock as remote time.

    That is, of course, nonsense, but is actually the only way that
    Einstein's text could be interpreted.

    I wrote several times already already, that this would be wrong, but
    wouldn't be my fault, because I'm NOT the author of the text under
    consideration.
    TH


    Whether a "generous" or "ingenerous" reading need follow,
    it's fair to say that in Einstein's theory that the only
    thing in Einstein's theory that goes light speed is his mind.

    Or, like the koan, "it is your mind that moves".


    Well, possibly...

    But I simply doen't care how fast his mind goes, because I'm not
    thinking about his mind, but about an articles, which he had written.

    This is why I anaylsed his statements and tried to interpret them in a possible way.

    If this interpretation isn't, what Einstein had in mind, even if my interpretation is possible, then it's Einstein's fault, not mine,
    because it's the authors story, which he tells and not the story of the reader.

    This is why I would request from a scientific author to make clear, what
    he wants to say and write it down in 'finished' form.

    It is not allowed to expect the reader to 'develop' the author's hints
    like a photographic film.

    Therefore any statement of the author is taken as if they were cast in
    stone.

    Also previous or subsequent statements in other media or on other
    occasions are irrelevant, because the article is take as if it would be
    the only thing an author had ever written.

    If this sounds unfair, than I suggest other topics then theoretical physics.

    (I as a reader have no duties at all, because reading is voluntarily.)

    Now we are dealing with 'theoretical physics' here, which has some extra rules.

    Especially this branch of physics requires mathematical correctness and doesn't allow any kind of error.

    This is why you can separate any statement from it's 'environement',
    because theoretical physics requires, that all statements the text is
    composed of are also valid themselves.

    This was a quote from me, but not about the method to synchronize clocks.

    I meant the entire text with 'full of errors'.

    The number of errors is extremely large and counts in the hundreds.


    And I didn't believe for a minute, that Max Planck was unable to see at

    I wrote about how the method should be (but wasn't), that you need to

    The round trip shall last, say, two seconds, then the delay would be one second.

    This one second you would add to, say, 1:00:00 pm, which is the currect
    time here.

    Therefore you need to encode 01:00:01 pm into the signal, which you need
    to send to the Moon.

    There the Man-on-the-Moon reads the signal and dials the Moon-time-clock
    to 01:00:01 pm. Now both clocks are synchronized (supposed the tick rate
    is also equal).

    But Einstein used an entirely different method and didn't even mention

    not true. You don't have to encode. The second is defined by a shit in a state, inherently at a speed of infinity. There is no rise or fall time.

    Therefore you need to encode 01:00:01 pm into the signal, which you need

    No, you needn't. There is a simplier way, which the one Einstein describe.

    to 01:00:01 pm. Now both clocks are synchronized (supposed the tick rate

    But Einstein used an entirely different method and didn't even mention delay.

    When you substract values from two separated clock you cannot know in
    advance if the result is a delay or not. It relies on synchronisation.

    When you substract values from ONE single clock THEN you know that is a
    delay, so when Einstein wrote 2AB/(t'A - tA) every decent reader would recognize t'A - tA as a "delay".

    Then when he define synchronisation as the property that tB - tA = t'A -
    tB, again everyone with a very minimal clue would recognize that IF THE PROPERTY IS TRUE tB - tA and t'A - tB are delays.

    If tB - tA =/= t'A - tB then it is easy to compute the offset that should
    be applied to any of the clocks, even to both if you wish. See : https://noedge.net/e/ this is DIRECT application of formulas from
    Einstein's article : 1) first to check if clocks are in sync and 2) to
    compute the offset to be applied in order to make them so (Einstein did
    not address this directly in his paper as it is trivial to deduce from the *checking* synchronisation procedure)

    Nobody on Earth was, back then, stupid enough to interpret this as taking
    the reading of the remote clock as the value to be set. This is utterly asinine.

    But Einstein's method to synchronize clocks was actually also wrong.

    Let's review what "Einstein's method to synchronize clocks" is.
    The very first paragraph of Einstein's paper is:

    -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity
    The definition 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,
    it is possible for an observer at B to determine the time values
    of events in the immediate neighbourhood of B.
    . . .
    Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction of A,
    and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC# A.
    In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    tB reAtA = trC#A reAtB.
    "
    This equation can be written: tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2
    The transit time for the ray to go from A to B or from B to A is
    "delay" = (t'A-tA)/2

    In words:
    If the clock at A shows t when a ray of light is sent,
    then the clock at B is synchronous with the clock at A if it
    shows t plus the transit time (delay) when the pulse is received.

    Note. Einstein only give the definition of simultaneity,
    he say what the clocks should read to be synchronous.

    He does not say anything about how to sync non-synchronous clocks.
    This depends on the available instruments etc., and doesn't belong
    in a _definition_ of simultaneity.
    >

    A _definition_ can't be wrong.


    I wrote about how the method should be (but wasn't), that you need to measure the delay for the 'round trip', devide that by two and use the result as correction of the own time value.

    Right.
    According to Einstein the clocks are synced if tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2

    'delay' = (t'A-tA)/2

    E.g. you want to adjust a clock on the Moon, which is one light-second
    away.

    I note with interest that you now have realised that you must have
    an observer on the Moon, and you are using Einstein's definition
    of simultaneity, the definition you claimed was wrong.


    Then you first need to send a signal there, which gets reflected on the
    Moon and sent back to Earth.

    The round trip shall last, say, two seconds, then the delay would be one second.

    The 'delay' is measured in Einstein's method.


    This one second you would add to, say, 1:00:00 pm, which is the currect
    time here.

    Therefore you need to encode 01:00:01 pm into the signal, which you need
    to send to the Moon.

    There the Man-on-the-Moon reads the signal and dials the Moon-time-clock
    to 01:00:01 pm. Now both clocks are synchronized (supposed the tick rate
    is also equal).

    So you are trying to set the clock at the Moon to show
    tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2

    In accordance with Einstein's definition!

    However, your method of synchronising non-synchronous clocks can
    hardly work. If we are synchronising atomic clocks the synchronisation
    should probably be within a ns or better.
    tA is the time at the start of the signal and so is tB.
    Your coded signal will have to be several ns long.
    Go figure!

    ----------------

    I have told you several times how it can be done:
    This is one possible way:

    Clock at B will probably not be synchronous with clock at A.
    So let B's reading of the clock when the ray is reflected be tx.
    The observer at A has measured tA and t'A.

    The observers have now to communicate.
    When B is at the Moon, observer A would probably use
    a radio transmitter, and B would have a receiver.

    Observer at A can then send tA and t'A to observer at B.

    The Moon observer knows that according to Einstein:
    "The two clocks synchronise if tB reA tA = t'A reA tB."

    So he knows that to be in sync, clock at B should have shown
    tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2 = (tA + t'A)/2

    But since it showed tx, he must add the correction:
    +| = tB - tx = (tA + t'A)/2 - tx

    So when he corrects the clock at B with +|,
    it will be in synch with clock at A.

    Note that if at a later time the clock at B shows t,
    then the correct time is t++|.

    That is: +| shouldn't be added to tx, but to current time.

    >
    But Einstein used an entirely different method and didn't even mention delay.

    You are really something. :-D

    I have told you at umpteen times:

    Einstein:
    "We establish by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from B to A."

    That is: the clocks are synchronous if the 'delay' forth is
    the same as the 'delay' back.

    Is your problem that you don't find the transit time of the ray
    called by the word "delay" ?

    Why am I expecting you to keep saying
    "Einstein didn't even mention delay? :-D

    Sure, that's correct!

    I have actually written that several times already, but you have always rejected my demand.

    But the question wasn't, what I think or you, but what Einstein wrote in
    his paper.

    And there ain't no such thing as 'delay'.

    Einstein simply ignored the 'technical' requirements for synchronization.


    Note. Einstein only give the definition of simultaneity,
    he say what the clocks should read to be synchronous.


    But Einstein's definition was nonsense!

    It is obvious, that the transit of a signal needs a little bit of time
    and that this time follows after the event, if a signal from an event is interpreted somewhere.

    For a proper definition of simultaneity you need to consider the delay
    and subtract it afterwards again from the remote measurement.

    Or in the other direction:

    if you watch a remote clock and read out the remote time, you need to
    add the delay to that reading, if you want to know the present time at
    the remote station.


    He does not say anything about how to sync non-synchronous clocks.
    This depends on the available instruments etc., and doesn't belong
    in a _definition_ of simultaneity.

    Sure.

    But we're talking about principles and whether or not those make sense.

    And Einstein's principles didn't make sense.

    This caan be seen, if you compare Einstein's text ('On the
    electrodynamics of moving bodies') and what Einstein wrote there about
    this method in comparison to how that should actually be done.

    A _definition_ can't be wrong.

    Well, in a way that is true, but would justify nonsense.


    I wrote about how the method should be (but wasn't), that you need to
    measure the delay for the 'round trip', devide that by two and use the
    result as correction of the own time value.

    Right.
    According to Einstein the clocks are synced if tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2

    'delay' = (t'A-tA)/2

    All of this wasn't written in Eisntein's paper.

    It would have been easy to rearrange the equations and derive, what you
    had witten.

    But Einstein didn't do that.

    No such thing as 'delay' occured in Einstein's paper.

    'Lichlaufzeit' was mentioned, which is almost the correct thing, but
    that time wasn't used to compensate the delay.

    Therefore my guess was: Einstein didn't wanted to correct the error
    caused by the delay.



    E.g. you want to adjust a clock on the Moon, which is one light-second
    away.

    I note with interest that you now have realised that you must have
    an observer on the Moon, and you are using Einstein's definition
    of simultaneity, the definition you claimed was wrong.

    ...
    I used an example and that was to place point B on the Moon and point A
    in Houston, Texas.
    This is IMHO possible, because an observer at A could see B.

    It is in fact nonsense to assume an observer on the Moon, but we could
    use the laser reflectors there or assume a future Moon station.

    Now we could see, that t_B is irrelevant in Einstein's setting, hence
    also, whether or not there is an observer on the Moon.

    Sation A measures simply the delay for the entire 'round trip', which is
    t'_A - t_A =delay_roundtrip

    The half of this value is the delay for one direction and that could be
    used to adjust the encoded time, which sent to the Moon-station.

    But in the end both clocks don't get synchronized mutually, because
    simply clock B is adjusted to clock A.

    Your 'demand' which I have 'rejected' was that Einstein's
    definition above was wrong because he had ignored the 'delay'.


    But the question wasn't, what I think or you, but what Einstein wrote in
    his paper.

    And there ain't no such thing as 'delay'.


    This is too stupid!

    Your 'delay' is obviously the transit time for the light
    to go from A to B, or from B to A.

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity in Einstein's words:
    "We establish by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light
    to travel from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel
    from B to A."

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity with math:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    tB reAtA = trC#A reA tB."

    Expressed in words:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    the transit time from A to B is equal to the transit time
    from B to A."

    The equation above can be written: tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2

    So Einstein's definition can be written:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2"

    Expressed in words:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    the clock at A shows t when a ray of light is sent, and
    the clock at B shows t plus the transit time when the ray
    is received."

    There is no way to express Einstein's definition without
    including the transit time. It is all about the transit time!

    So how did you manage to read Einstein's paper and miss
    that the transit time is mentioned over and over?

    ---------------------

    You have now admitted that Einstein's definition is correct.

    So stop claiming that the transit time is ignored.

    Case closed!

    But Einstein's method to synchronize clocks was actually also wrong.


    Let's review what "Einstein's method to synchronize clocks" is.
    The very first paragraph of Einstein's paper is:

    -a-a -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity
    The definition is:
    -a-a"If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    -a-a at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    -a-a proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which are
    -a-a simultaneous with these events. If there is at the point B of
    -a-a space another clock in all respects resembling the one at A,
    -a-a it is possible for an observer at B to determine the time values
    -a-a of events in the immediate neighbourhood of B.
    -a-a . . .
    -a-a Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    -a-a let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction of A, >>> -a-a and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC# A.
    -a-a-a In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    -a-a-a-a-a-a tB reAtA = trC#A reAtB.
    -a-a "
    This equation can be written: tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2
    The transit time for the ray to go from A to B or from B to A is
    "delay" = (t'A-tA)/2

    In words:
    If the clock at A shows t when a ray of light is sent,
    then the clock at B is synchronous with the clock at A if it
    shows t plus the transit time (delay) when the pulse is received.

    Sure, that's correct!

    Of course it is.

    So why do you keep insisting it is wrong?

    I DIDN'T, but wanted to show, that the correct solution (which I wrote)
    and the solution of Einstein were different.

    Therefore, Einstein's solution must be wrong.


    I have actually written that several times already, but you have
    always rejected my demand.

    Your 'demand' which I have 'rejected' was that Einstein's
    definition above was wrong because he had ignored the 'delay'.


    But the question wasn't, what I think or you, but what Einstein wrote
    in his paper.

    And there ain't no such thing as 'delay'.


    This is too stupid!

    Well, yes!!

    But it wasn't my stupidity.


    Your 'delay' is obviously the transit time for the light
    to go from A to B, or from B to A.

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity in Einstein's words:
    "We establish by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light
    -ato travel from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel
    -afrom B to A."

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity with math:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    -a-a-a-a-a-a tB reAtA = trC#A reA tB."

    Expressed in words:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    -athe transit time from A to B is equal to the transit time
    -afrom B to A."

    The equation above can be written: tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2

    So Einstein's definition can be written:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    -a-a-a tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2"

    But where is this equation in Einstein's paper??

    It is not sufficiant, that the equation could be derived with ease, but
    that the author derived this equation.

    And Einstein didn't. YOU did!

    I agree to the idea of local time, but would not reject a 'plane of simultaneity'.


    In relativity lingo a 'plane of simultaneity' is called 'spacelike'.

    J'aurais quand m|-me eu affaire |a de biens belles bandes de cr|-tins sur >> usenet, mais nous tournons en rond.

    Sinon je rappelle que :
    "It is not possible to synchronize two distant watches because they will
    never share the same notion of universal simultaneity.
    The plane of absolute present time does not exist.
    This notion, however deeply rooted in our minds it may be, does not
    exist. Our universe is not made like that; it is made according to the
    principle of universal anisochrony. "The time here cannot absolutely
    correspond with the time there." The plane of absolute present time is a
    fantasy.
    Let's take the example of a mountain. Its altitude is 3,645 meters. Much
    lower down, in the valley, we have an altitude of 1,250 meters. The two
    points can NEVER be measured at the same height.
    Let's say I set my altimeter to 3,645 meters. I'll have the same height
    as the other altimeter by this subterfuge, but as soon as I go up there,
    my altimeter will no longer agree with the other one. Their agreement in
    principle was artificial; the two points were not at the same height,
    period.
    This is what physics theorists seem to fail to understand when
    discussing the nature of time. We CANNOT AGREE the notions of local
    simultaneity. It may be that an event in B occurs at the same time as an
    event in A for A. But this will not be simultaneous for B.
    It is quite incredible that physicists were able to understand the
    notion of relativity of chronotropy by a change of reference frame, but
    without understanding that of anisochrony by a simple change of position."

    I agree to the idea of local time, but would not reject a 'plane of simultaneity'.


    In relativity lingo a 'plane of simultaneity' is called 'spacelike'.

    That is technically a hyperplane (commonly called 'present').

    It could be defined by a hypothetical signal with infinite velocity.

    This hyperplane is comoving with the observer and connects a realm,
    which actually invisible, though real.

    I'm not sure you understand what I'm saying.
    It gives a rather unpleasant impression.
    A bit like if for forty years, a man had been saying that he was injured falling from a horse, and by the word "horse," everyone understood that he
    had fallen from a rabbit.
    All of this is quite incredible. It's still not normal, even if sometimes
    the language barrier can play tricks, that no one, ever, understands this
    idea of the relativity of the hyperplane of present time between two
    distant observers, making perfect synchronization and absolute
    simultaneity of their respective existences impossible.
    No one seems to understand that Juliet, sitting on this bench, and Romeo sitting on that other one, although in the same courtyard, but separated
    by a distance of 30 meters, will never live in the same absolute present
    time. This is what is called universal anisochrony. Their universal
    present time plane is relative, and entirely personal. Two simultaneous
    events for Romeo (she beeps at the same time as him for him) will no
    longer be simultaneous for Juliet (for her, in this case, Romeo beeped
    much later delta_t=2x/c).

    This caan be seen, if you compare Einstein's text

    Einstein wrote there about this method in comparison
    to how that should actually be done.

    I wrote about how the method should be (but wasn't),
    that you need to measure the delay for the 'round trip',
    devide that by two and use the result as correction of
    the own time value.

    But Einstein used an entirely different method and didn't even
    mention delay.



    Your 'delay' is obviously the transit time for the light
    to go from A to B, or from B to A.

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity in Einstein's words:
    "We establish by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light
    -a-ato travel from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel
    -a-afrom B to A."

    Is the 'delay' mentioned?
    Is this wrong?


    Einstein's definition of simultaneity with math:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a tB reAtA = trC#A reA tB."

    Expressed in words:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    -a-athe transit time from A to B is equal to the transit time
    -a-afrom B to A."

    Is the 'delay' mentioned?
    Is this wrong?

    The equation above can be written: tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2

    So Einstein's definition can be written:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2"

    Expressed in words:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    the clock at A shows t when a ray of light is sent, and
    the clock at B shows t plus the transit time when the ray
    is received."

    Is the 'delay' mentioned?
    Is this wrong?


    But where is this equation in Einstein's paper??

    (tB reAtA = trC#A reA tB) rei (tB = tA + (t'A-tA)/2)


    It is not sufficiant, that the equation could be derived with ease, but
    that the author derived this equation.

    And Einstein didn't. YOU did!

    And that's why Einstein didn't even menton delay,
    and his defition of sumultaneity is wrong? :-D

    His definition was wrong, because he took the actual remote reading of a distant clock as remote time.

    This was conceptually wrong. In fact he had to add the delay to that
    reading.

    But Einstein didn't mention delay and didn't calculate that delay properly.

    If it were enough to conceive of an inertial frame of reference with its present time hyperplane as something absolute, and to say that we must
    wait for the delay of light to synchronize the clocks (because light does
    not travel quickly), it is particularly ridiculous and at the level of low-level thinking.

    Since the notion of simultaneity is defined by the coincident existence
    of all events occurring at the same time, or else is characterized by the
    set of all physical phenomena occurring at the same instant, we should be able, at least by considering all the fixed components located in the same frame of reference, to speak of "absolute simultaneity," "universal synchronization," or "common calendar." These terms are likely to acquire
    a real physical meaning if we could, without it varying, transpose the
    cosmic simultaneity specific to an observer to all the other inertial observers present in the system.

    It would be enough to find any signal, or a particular action at a
    distance by which a body A could interact instantaneously with a body B,
    or to discover a round-trip signal propagating infinitely quickly between
    the two bodies, such that the events "information departure" from A and "information return" to A are simultaneous, for this notion to be experimentally proven.

    It would then be possible to say that there exists, de facto, between A
    and B, a sort of absolute and reciprocal present time that connects these
    two bodies,
    and that they are intrinsically part of the same hyperplane of
    simultaneity.

    However, this proof does not exist: no infinitely fast signal or
    information at a distance that is instantaneous has ever been found.
    Rather, it seems that there exists in the universe an insurmountable speed limit that will extend, for any frame of reference considered, to all particles and all the laws of physics.

    From this, it will inevitably become apparent that it is physically
    impossible to cover any reference point with fixed clocks that are
    resolutely synchronized with each other, since they will never be able to agree on the notion of simultaneity of events that occurred "elsewhere";
    and we
    can reasonably propose the following postulate:
    "Even if they are stationary with each other,
    placed in different locations,
    different observers,
    build different systems of simultaneity."

    This equation is false and could only be true if the speed of
    information were isotropic in all directions relative to a given
    observer.

    This equation occurs in Einstein's text on page 3, roughly in the
    middle.

    Whether it is correct or not, that wasn't my point.

    It's a correct quote, however, and stemed from Einstein's paper.


    I personally prefer a small difference, because usually I write

    Ze problem, Richard, is zat what Poincar|- wrote is 100% equivalent to

    Hence the name: "Einstein-Poincar|- synchronization method".

    https://noedge.net/e/


    This is actually possible, but wasn't my topic.

    I have treated Einstein's paper as a 'singular text'.

    This means, that the text is regarded as if it would be the only paper
    on the planet. What the author actually had in mind or what he or
    anybody else wrote or said elsewhere, that was treated as nonexistent.

    This sounds a little harsh, but actually isn't.

    It is a simple requirement for any scientific text and means, that a
    text should be 'self-contained' and should contain everything needed to decipher, what the author had in mind.

    Such a setting is necessary, if you want to criticize a paper, because otherwise the content of the paper gets undefined.

    Here was the question, whether Einstein's synchronization method was
    valid or not.

    This would require to isolate Einstein's method from any other method,
    which was used by somebody else (like Poincare in this case).

    Now Einstein didn't calculate transit time (delay) and had apparently no intention to do that, because his paper doesn't contain even the word
    'delay' or any equivalent term.

    That paper also doesn't contain any calculation of the delay. Therefore,
    we are entitled to assume, that Einstein didn't want to calculate the delay.

    Whether Poincare did, that is irrelevant in this context.

    at the rCLB timerCY t_B be reflected at B in the direction of A, and
    arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY $t'_A."

    And then that when t_B - t_A, t'_A - t_B and t'_A - t_A (all being subtractions of times) are mentioned they all are (on some conditions that Einstein specified) TRANSIT TIME i.e. delay then you definitely are not
    part of the intended audience of this article.

    Your interpretation of the text, which has absolutely no ground in the
    paper itself, is even ruled out at the very beginning of this section:

    "We might, of course, content ourselves with time values determined by an observer stationed together with the watch at the origin of the
    co-ordinates, and co-ordinating the corresponding positions of the hands
    with light signals, given out by every event to be timed, and reaching him through empty space. But this co-ordination has the disadvantage that it
    is not independent of the standpoint of the observer with the watch or
    clock, as we know from experience. We arrive at a much more practical determination along the following line of thought."

    Einstein EXPLICITLY rejects the interpretation you pulled out of nowhere.

    The problem with Einstein, that is, with German relativistic thought of
    1905, is that he seems to consider the photon to be a kind of small
    particle which, like a carriage, travels through space and time the
    distance from Paris to Marseille, then returns.
    Since the journey is made at a finite speed, there is therefore a delay between the instant of departure and the instant of return. The journey
    lasted ten days.
    And since the horse travels at the same speed, and the outward journey is
    the same as the return journey, it's simple, we divide by two.
    We are in the midst of Galilean reflection.
    This comparison is obviously scientifically dramatic.
    I have explained a thousand times why, and what the relativity of the
    notion of simultaneity is within a simple physical frame of reference, I
    won't go over it again.

    Is your 'delay' anything different from: "die Zeit, welche

    Quite. I found :

    "the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel from A to B"


    And after very careful search I haven't found, what you wrote the text

    Of course you didn't.

    One can't expect an ignoramus to understand that
    the statements:

    "die "Zeit", welche das Licht braucht, um von A nach B
    zu gelangen"
    and
    "the time required by light to travel from A to B"
    and
    "the transit time of light to go from A to B"

    mean exactly the same.


    So, you should take the possibility into consideration, that your guess about the text was wrong.

    Says one who can read Einstein's paper very careful without
    noticing that the definition of simultaneity is all about
    the transit time.

    "In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    tB reAtA = trC#A reA tB."

    The two clocks are synchronous if the transit time of light
    is the same in both direction.

    The two clocks are synchronous if the transit time of light
    is the same in both direction.

    This is stupid.

    The transit time of light (information) is the same in both direction A to
    B (for A) and B to A (for A).

    You can't harmonize two watches placed in different locations because of a strange property of space that ancient philosophers and scientists were unaware of: spatial anisochrony.

    A very bad example, but one that can help you understand, is that of two sundial clocks, one placed in Paris, the other in Moscow.

    NATURALLY, we can never harmonize them because of the Earth's roundness.
    Of course, the shadow of their arms will rotate at the same speed, which
    means they will have the same chronotropy, but they will never mark the
    same time.

    The same is true of two clocks placed in the same frame of reference, but
    in different locations. Each sees the other slightly behind. The notion of present time is not "absolute." It's not a problem of delay or
    transmission, but of a real, physical, unavoidable difference.

    Let's return to the idea of rCirCiour solar clock. In Paris, it is noon,
    but in Moscow, it is 3:00 (the Earth rotates from east to west).

    A space observer observes both clocks through his telescope,
    and reports that the Moscow clock is ahead, and that it must conform to
    the Paris clock.

    The observer then sees two synchronous clocks in his telescope,
    except that the Moscow observer is surprised to see the sun set earlier
    and rise three hours later. Etc.

    But if we ask the Parisian observer to synchronize,
    it is this new observer who will locally discover that there is a problem,
    and that his clock shows 3:00 at noon.

    We will therefore NEVER be able to "absolutely" match two solar clocks,
    just as we will never be able, because of anisochrony, that is, the
    relativity of local simultaneity, to match two atomic clocks. Each will be slightly ahead of the other, and more noticeably so with distance.

    This is a real, reciprocal phenomenon, and not due to a delay in light,
    which we would compare to a small carriage taking time to travel from
    Paris to Marseille.

    This is why the word "delay" in Einstein's writings is very biased and
    never properly explained.

    No, because Einstein used the symbol 't' for 'points in time', which
    were measured in system K as 'A-time'.

    The remote system in relative motion had also a local time, but which
    had a different symbol 'tau'.

    Now it is very important, to keep track of the frames of reference,
    which were addressed by Einstein's variables.

    We have two coordinate systems (K and k) and two different symbols for
    time coordinates (t and tau).

    Einstein used the term 'time' not as intervals, but meant 'points in time'.

    This was also wrong, of course, because time is always an interval and absolute points in time make no sense.

    But Einstein meant actually 'points in time' with t.

    Therefore, you were wrong, because those t in "t_B - t_A, t'_A - t_B and
    t'_A - t_A" were actually not all 'subtractions of times'.

    Einstein meant points in time.

    Duration was therefore a difference between t'_A and t_A (for instance).

    BUT (VERY IMPORTANT!) all of these t were based and measured with
    'A-time' and by the observer in A.

    This made t_B in measures of 'B-time' irrelevant.

    The remote clock at B should be turned to 'A-time' anyhow (what was
    regarded as 'synchronization').

    But to do this, we would need to tell an observer at point B the value
    of t_B, to which he had to set the local clock at the time of arrival of
    the signal.

    This could be done, if the observer at point A measures the delay, adds
    the value to the local time in A, sends the result encoded to the remote station, where the local observer there turns the clock at point B accordingly.



    Your interpretation of the text, which has absolutely no ground in the
    paper itself, is even ruled out at the very beginning of this section:


    Sure, but that wasn't 'interpretation of the text'.

    Instead I had created the correct method for synchronization myself and compared Einstein's method with that.

    And, sure, there was a difference.

    "We might, of course, content ourselves with time values determined by
    an observer stationed together with the watch at the origin of the co- ordinates, and co-ordinating the corresponding positions of the hands
    with light signals, given out by every event to be timed, and reaching
    him through empty space. But this co-ordination has the disadvantage
    that it is not independent of the standpoint of the observer with the
    watch or clock, as we know from experience. We arrive at a much more practical determination along the following line of thought."

    Einstein EXPLICITLY rejects the interpretation you pulled out of nowhere.
    I interpreted Einstein's word, as if he wanted to take the actually
    reading of the remote clock as remote time.

    This follows from his procedure, where he 'reads' the remote clock
    (apparently by means of a telescope or similar).

    This time value, which he reads from the remote clock, was assumed to be depending upon the distance between the observer and the clock.

    But that would require, that Einstein didn't want to correct the
    received signal of the error caused by the transit delay.

    This was in fact my interpretation of Einstein's text.

    If you have any other, than, please, let me know.

    Quite right.
    Einstein never mentioned 'transit time' in his paper
    which was written in German.
    https://paulba.no/paper/Electrodynamik.pdf

    Einstein wrote:
    "die "Zeit", welche das Licht braucht, um von A nach B zu gelangen"
    and:
    "der "Zeit", welche es braucht, um von B nach A zu gelangen."

    Translated to English:
    "the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel from A to B"
    and:
    "the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from B to A.

    Is your 'delay' anything different from: "die Zeit, welche
    das Licht braucht, um von A nach B zu gelangen"?

    In that case, please explain what 'delay' means.


    The problem was, that Einstein equated these transit times (from A to B
    and from B to A), but didn't take the 'one way delay' into consideration.

    We would need this 'one way delay', because otherwise we couldn't
    correct the error caused by the finite speed of light.

    That these values are equal, that is quite a logical requirement, even
    if that isn't necessarily the case.

    (This is so, because the delays are only equal on both ways, if the
    sender and the remote station do not move in respect to each other.)

    But we need the 'one way delay' as a numerical value, because if we
    don't have that, we cannot correct the time value of a remote clock.


    Let's take a cosmological example: a planet near Alpha Centaury.

    The delay of a signal from there to here shall be three years, for instance.

    Now we receive a timing signal, which is based on 'Alpha Centaury Mean
    Time' and its value is three years late, once it arrives here.

    We simply cannot use the actual value, because we know, that it had to
    be wrong.

    We must correct that value 'by hand' and add three years to the received
    time value.

    To do this, it is essential to know this delay, which therefor needs to
    be measured.

    This can be done by sending a 'ping' to the remote station, measure the
    delay for the total 'round trip' and cut that in half.

    But no such thing was done or even mentioned by Einstein.

    We are not dealing yet with systems in relative motion in this section.

    t and tau are defined for both systems K and k in the exact same way: by considering mutually at rests clocks in both frames of reference. Einstein wrote it explicitly:

    "We imagine further that with each clock there is a moving observer, and
    that these observers apply to both clocks the criterion established in
    -o1"

    But it is pointless to talk about what is beyond -o1 if you've already completely missed the point of -o1. Right?

    Einstein used the term 'time' not as intervals, but meant 'points in time'.

    He meant what a local clock reads. PERIOD.

    This was also wrong, of course, because time is always an interval and absolute points in time make no sense.

    But Einstein meant actually 'points in time' with t.

    Therefore, you were wrong, because those t in "t_B - t_A, t'_A - t_B and t'_A - t_A" were actually not all 'subtractions of times'.

    Duration was therefore a difference between t'_A and t_A (for instance).

    BUT (VERY IMPORTANT!) all of these t were based and measured with
    'A-time' and by the observer in A.

    This made t_B in measures of 'B-time' irrelevant.

    Your sentence is utterly asinine. The whole point of this section is to
    insure (or check) that B-time and A-time are "compatible", i.e. can be combined in formula. This is the whole point of synchronization.

    The remote clock at B should be turned to 'A-time' anyhow (what was
    regarded as 'synchronization').

    But to do this, we would need to tell an observer at point B the value
    of t_B, to which he had to set the local clock at the time of arrival of
    the signal.

    The observer at B does not need to be told what t_B is. He *observes* it
    on his clock.

    How can you be sooo confused on such basic stuff?

    This could be done, if the observer at point A measures the delay, adds
    the value to the local time in A, sends the result encoded to the remote station, where the local observer there turns the clock at point B accordingly.

    This is exactly what he could do when he'll get the value of tA and t'A
    from observer A (this can be done by any mean, at any future time). He can then use Einstein formula to compute the offset to apply to his clock in
    order to insure that t'A - tB = tB - tA in case it was not true.

    Your interpretation of the text, which has absolutely no ground in the
    paper itself, is even ruled out at the very beginning of this section:


    Sure, but that wasn't 'interpretation of the text'.

    Instead I had created the correct method for synchronization myself and compared Einstein's method with that.

    or not, but is irrelevant.

    And, sure, there was a difference.

    an observer stationed together with the watch at the origin of the co-

    Still not got it?


    It was, of course, easy to calculate and would be

    delay =(t'_A - t_A)/2

    This delay should have been used to correct the apparent time at the
    remote clock.

    Good grief! The 'remote clock' again. Do you never learn?

    Translated to Enlish:
    "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, it is possible

    There is no "apparent time" at the "remote clock" to correct.

    The observer at B reads the clock at B to show tB.
    There is nothing "apparent" about tB.



    But Einstein didn't do that and made absolutely no attempts to do that,
    nor even mentioned the requirement or the word 'delay' itself.

    'delay' is not the correct word for travel time or transit time.

    Is your 'delay' anything different from: "die Zeit, welche

    In that case, please explain what 'delay' means.


    The problem was, that Einstein equated these transit times (from A
    to B and from B to A), but didn't take the 'one way delay' into
    consideration.

    You didn't answer the question:


    sure I did.

    I was missing a statement about the transit delay from A to B.


    Is your 'one way delay' different from: "die Zeit, welche
    das Licht braucht, um von A nach B zu gelangen" ?

    (the German part means:
    the time which light needs to get from A to B)

    Sure, that would have been delay.

    You have given the exact quote about what Einstein had actually
    written about this delay.

    But: where is 'delay'?

    'delay' is a wrong word used on a transits time.

    Webster: delay (noun)

    a: the act of postponing, hindering, or causing something
    -a-a to occur more slowly than normal : the state of being delayed

    b: an instance of being delayed


    I mean: how long is that time?

    Good grief!
    You have been told umpteen time!

    -adefinition the two clocks are synchronous if tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB "

    The 'one way delay' from A to B = tB reA tA

    NO!!

    The 'one way delay' is not easy to measure.

    You can measure only two way delay at a certain spot ('A' for instance).

    This delay would have been - say- 2 seconds for a signal from Earth to
    the Moon and back.

    Half of that is assumed to be the one way delay, but t_B is irrelevant
    and also unknown on Earth.

    The Earth station A can only measure t'_A and t_A. The difference is
    actually 'two way delay'.

    To measure t_B is difficult from Earth, if the clock there isn't
    extremly large.

    The 'one way delay' from B to A = trC#A reA tB

    If tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB, then the two clocks are synchronous

    If the 'one way delay', measured with the clocks at A and B,
    is the same in both direction, then the clocks at A and B
    are synchronous.

    Supposed there is a man on the Mood, he could do the same from the
    postion 'B' ('Moon station') and come to a certain value for the delay
    in measures of 'B-time'.

    But how could he possibly know, that this value is the same as the value measured upon planet Earth?

    But supposed he can do that somehow, how would this fact synchronise his
    clock with that on Earth?

    Still not got it?

    No, still not...

    To me it sounds like nonsense.

    If you want to synchronise two different clocks, you need to adjust at
    least one clock to a different value.

    In case of a wrist watch you would pull out the crown a little bit and
    turn the hands to a different position.

    But what position would you chose and which clock would you like to adjust?

    Usually you tend to adjust the remote clock and keep your own clock as
    it is.

    The other way round would also be possible, but would be usually much
    less pleasant.

    So, you decide to take your own time and adjust the remote clock
    accordingly.

    To do this, you need to have a clock and a helper at point B.

    The helper needs to have a timing signal, which you need to send to him.

    Once the signal arrives at the remote station, the helper turns the
    remote clock to your timing value.

    This timing value had therefore be a part of the signal, which you need
    to send to the remote station, hence you need to know, when the signal
    will arrive there in measures of your own clock.

    The observer at B reads the clock at B to show tB.
    There is nothing "apparent" about tB.

    The reading of the observer at position 'B' would not help the observer
    at point A.

    If A wants to synchronise the remote clock at 'B' with the own clock,
    the remote time t_B would become irrelevant.

    It is unknown, anyhow, if A could not read out the clock at B.

    B could read ||ut his clock, of course. But how could A make use of B's knowledge?



    But Einstein didn't do that and made absolutely no attempts to do
    that, nor even mentioned the requirement or the word 'delay' itself.

    'delay' is not the correct word for travel time or transit time.


    Ok, possibly. But actually I think, that delay would fit for 'transit
    time', because a remaote clock seen through an extremly large telescope
    would seem to be too late (by the value called 'delay').

    If the earth slows down it's spinning..is that delay?

    Or it speeds up, is that delay?

    I don't understand How you can measure Time using earth's spinning if
    the
    earth slows down and speeds up. The Time, earth's time is never
    correct.

    Is there a clock that goes back a second or forward a second according
    to earth's time????

    It's slowing down, Sir.

    It's speeding up sir!

    What time is it?

    i think i broke my watch...

    According to
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian_canals

    During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it was erroneously
    believed that there were "canals" on the planet Mars.

    They were first described by a guinea wop astronomer Giovanni
    Schiaparelli during the opposition of 1877, and attested to by later
    observers. Schiaparelli called these canali ("channels"), which was mis-translated into English as "canals".

    The guinea word canale (plural canali) can mean "canal", "channel",
    "duct" or "gully".[1]

    Leave The Gun, Take The Cannoli.


    Now, How many YEARS did scientist believed there were canals on
    Mars????

    idiot, the signal itself experience no time delay, that's instantaneous.
    The only one experiencing the delay is the sender. It can count the delay
    by counting ticks, if the receiver reflects back the signal. The receiver experience no delay, there is no dt, as you need a minimum of two

    The problem is the delay!

    the beep is 12:00:00 GMT' to a remote station (like e.g. the Moon'),
    the signal will arrive there with a certain delay.

    To send an information like 'we have now 13:02:05' somewhere wouldn't
    make sense.
    (supposed t_A =13:02:05)

    We could do that, however. But what should an observer somewhere remote
    do with such an information?


    TH



    Delay????

    If the earth slows down it's spinning..is that delay?

    If you send a signal from here to Alpha Centaury, you have a delay of
    roughly three years.

    Or you see a star in, say, 1 million ly distance, you have a delay of 1 million years.

    Since these numbers are so huge in cosmology, it would be wise to take
    them into consideration.


    Or it speeds up, is that delay?
    no

    I meant the delay of a signal, which is caused by the finite speed of
    light.
    I don't understand How you can measure Time using earth's spinning if
    the
    earth slows down and speeds up. The Time, earth's time is never
    correct.

    Sure, but that is another story.

    Is there a clock that goes back a second or forward a second according
    to earth's time????

    It's slowing down, Sir.

    It's speeding up sir!

    What time is it?

    i think i broke my watch...
    This addresses also an important topic, but not the problem I had in
    mind with 'delay'.
    Actually I think, that time isn't universal, but a local parameter.

    Also invisible worlds are thinkable, where time runs backwards (from our perspective).

    That is certainly interesting, but wasn't a topic in SRT.

    (Einstein "Time is what clocks say")

    I meant, that this is not the case, because 'to see' requires light and
    that time to travel.

    Therefore, you need to add the delay to the value you read from the
    remote clock.

    With Moon this is rather simple, because it is roughly one second delay.

    But 'to see' also would require extremely large magnification of the
    telescope or an extremely large clock on the Moon.

    " 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, it is possible for an observer at B to determine

    the key parts you missed is "immediate proximity" and "immediate neighbourhood".

    i heard that the Germans are superior to the Irish, ...is that true?

    Certainly not.

    This problem starts with the term 'the Germans'.

    This is a name and means a set of people.

    But how would you define this set?

    There are a number of different definitions, which all do not really fit.


    One meaning of 'German' is: a person, who speaks German as first language.

    (this is, btw, the only definition, which does makes some sense)


    another meaning: person belonging to an ethnicity named 'the Germans'.

    This definition has two problems. first problem: no such ethnicity
    exists. second: the people actually named 'Germans' have a number of
    very different roots, which would mean, that they do not stem from the
    same ancestors or tribes.


    another meaning: German is a person, who is citizen of the Federal
    Republic of Germany.

    This would make sense, but isn't very satisfying, because numerous
    Germans are German after this definition, but stem from Turkey or Syria.

    This is Thomas' obsession with the Moon that brings us here. Of

    It is not my fault if he fails to grasp that what Einstein described
    is more suited to clocks a few centimeters or meters away in a real
    lab experiment. As I've shown you with a paper from CERN.

    BTW, do you think, also, that you cannot transmit a value recorded by
    a clock on the Moon if this clock is not "extremely large"? After
    you're both wannabee engineers :-)


    The idea of Einstein was, that reading of a remote clock by e.g. a
    large telescope would be the time of the remote clock.

    (Einstein "Time is what clocks say")

    I meant, that this is not the case, because 'to see' requires light
    and that time to travel.

    " 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, it is possible for an observer at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate neighbourhood of B. "

    the key parts you missed is "immediate proximity" and "immediate neighbourhood".


    Ok, A watches his clock at A and B his clock at B.

    Now we want to synchronise both clocks.

    How would you like to do that?

    a) We could introduce a third observer at C, which is in the exact
    middle between A nd B.

    C would tell A to turn the hands of his clocks to the own 'C-time' and
    do the same with B, which also had to turn the clock to 'C-time'.

    Then A and B would also be in synch.

    So far, so good.

    BUT: this could only be done for two points (here A and B), not for
    three, because three points build a triangle and the mid point of the
    triangle isn't lying upon one of the edges.

    Therefore 'midpoint-time' doesn't work for any other case than two points.


    Next try:

    b) you turn the hands of the clocks at B to A-time.

    That method would work, but isn't symmetric, because the time at point B ('B-time') wouldn't be used at all.


    Next try:

    c) you turn the hands of the clocks at A to B-time.

    This would work, but has the same disadvantages as the previous one.


    NOw you have three bad options and have to chose one.


    I took option b) from above and would synchronise the clock in point B
    to 'A-time'.

    That would make some sense and isn't violating too many assumptions
    about the real world, which are regarded as valid.

    Method a) was apparently what Einstein actually wanted, even if he
    didn't say so.

    I don't like this method, because it would introduce a third observer
    (what is 'unnatural') and that would lead to infinite regress, if the
    points A and C are also regarded as endpoint of an interval.

    so I took method b) as method, which would make the most sense.

    Decide if either A or B should apply an offset to his clock.

    Check if t_B - t_A = t_A' - t_B, if true then there is nothing to do :
    clocks are synchronized.

    If it's not compute the offset to apply so that it would have been true.

    Replay the whole procedure if you wish, you should notice that clocks are

    i heard that the Germans are superior to the Irish, ...is that true?

    Certainly not.

    This problem starts with the term 'the Germans'.

    This is a name and means a set of people.

    But how would you define this set?

    There are a number of different definitions, which all do not really fit.


    One meaning of 'German' is: a person, who speaks German as first language.

    (this is, btw, the only definition, which does makes some sense)


    another meaning: person belonging to an ethnicity named 'the Germans'.

    This definition has two problems. first problem: no such ethnicity
    exists. second: the people actually named 'Germans' have a number of
    very different roots, which would mean, that they do not stem from the
    same ancestors or tribes.


    another meaning: German is a person, who is citizen of the Federal
    Republic of Germany.

    This would make sense, but isn't very satisfying, because numerous
    Germans are German after this definition, but stem from Turkey or Syria.

    The idea of Einstein was, that reading of a remote clock by e.g. a
    large telescope would be the time of the remote clock.

    (Einstein "Time is what clocks say")

    I meant, that this is not the case, because 'to see' requires light
    and that time to travel.

    " 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, it is possible for an observer
    at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    neighbourhood of B. "

    the key parts you missed is "immediate proximity" and "immediate
    neighbourhood".


    Ok, A watches his clock at A and B his clock at B.

    Now we want to synchronise both clocks.

    How would you like to do that?

    a) We could introduce a third observer at C, which is in the exact
    middle between-a A nd B.

    C would tell A to turn the hands of his clocks to the own 'C-time' and
    do the same with B, which also had to turn the clock to 'C-time'.

    Then A and B would also be in synch.

    So far, so good.

    BUT: this could only be done for two points (here A and B), not for
    three, because three points build a triangle and the mid point of the
    triangle isn't lying upon one of the edges.

    Therefore 'midpoint-time' doesn't work for any other case than two
    points.


    Next try:

    b) you turn the hands of the clocks at B to A-time.

    That method would work, but isn't symmetric, because the time at point
    B ('B-time')-a wouldn't be used at all.


    Next try:

    c) you turn the hands of the clocks at A to B-time.

    This would work, but has the same disadvantages as the previous one.


    NOw you have three bad options and have to chose one.


    I took option b) from above and would synchronise the clock in point B
    to 'A-time'.

    That would make some sense and isn't violating too many assumptions
    about the real world, which are regarded as valid.

    Method a) was apparently what Einstein actually wanted, even if he
    didn't say so.

    I don't like this method, because it would introduce a third observer
    (what is 'unnatural') and that would lead to infinite regress, if the
    points A and C are also regarded as endpoint of an interval.

    so I took method b) as method, which would make the most sense.

    TH

    Neither of these method makes sense.

    The method described by Einstein makes sense :

    'The method described by Einstein' would require a description in
    Einstein's text.

    But no such discription can be found in 'On the electrodynamics of
    moving bodies'.>
    Communicate t_A and t'_A to B and/or t_B to A.
    Sure, that would make sense. But the only thing close to your statement
    would have been to read the clock at B from point A through a large
    telescope.

    (Alternativly the clock at A could be read from B.)

    But time values like t_A or t'_A cannot be communicated from A to B,
    because there were only clocks and no other means to encode time values
    into light signals.
    Decide if either A or B should apply an offset to his clock.

    Sure, but I have actually mentioned this already.

    I had chosen B to adjust his clock.

    Check if t_B - t_A = t_A' - t_B, if true then there is nothing to do : clocks are synchronized.

    To subtract time values from distant locations, you would need to
    transfer one of such values to the other station and measure the other
    value there.

    But where have you found a description of this method in Einstein's paper?

    If it's not compute the offset to apply so that it would have been true.

    'to compute' means something like a numerical calculation.

    To do that, you would need to have numerical values and some means to do
    that calculation.

    But how would you transfer e.g. t_B from B to A?

    One method (if B is not too far away): look at point A thorugh a
    telescope at a clock at point B.

    In this case you would need to add the delay to the reading of the
    remote clock.

    other more modern means would use e.g. lasers and encoded time signals.

    But in any case you need to know the delay.


    Replay the whole procedure if you wish, you should notice that clocks
    are now synchronized.

    This can be experimented at : https://noedge.net/e/

    The Earth station A can only measure t'_A and t_A. The

    This is Thomas' obsession with the Moon that brings us here. Of

    English would be better in this forum!

    Anhow..

    The 'hyperplane of the present' is not visible, but real.

    It is not visible, because it connects infinitively fast, what light
    cannot do.

    Light is fast, however, but not that fast.

    To deal with this discrepancy, we had to reject the actual visual
    impression of something remote and must think, that what we see remote
    is a picture, we receive from the past.

    It is longer ago the further away, hence the picture is actually
    'layered in time'.

    Therefore the 'hyperplane of the present' is not what we can see in the
    night sky.

    Both differ from each other to a certain degree and cannot become
    reunited at all.

    This is so, because an event in say 3 ly distance will be visible in
    three years and one in 3 million ly distance in three million years.

    Therefore those two events can never be seen together, even if they
    happen at the same time.

    To say, that an event seen in 3 mio ly is happening now, because we can
    see it now, would be a horendous mistake.

    Therefore the 'hyperplane of the present' is not visible at all.

    Only a very small part can actually be seen in the direct vicinity.
    Everything else can only be seen with a certain delay.

    To transfer a timing signal from point A to point B would require, to

    This could be done by pigeons, if you like that, but would require to

    No. Everything will be computed later using *values* of t_A, t'_A and t_B.

    I'm amazed that, after forty years of saying this, no one can truly
    understand this simple fact that an 11-year-old child should understand.
    If you set your watch A to B, assuming spatial isochrony, that is, an
    absolute present-time plane between the two, you assume that the watches
    are in tune if, at the instant B receives the forward signal, it reads tB=AB/c.
    In both cases (Newton or Poincar|-), for A, the watches will be in tune.
    But only for A.
    For B, in Newtonian isochronic mode, B will also be in tune with A.
    But in relativistic mode, and it is the theory of relativity that is true,
    B will no longer be in tune with A, and the offset for B will become
    dt=2AB/c.

    I'm surprised no one makes the effort to understand this.

    Yet it's both very simple and very obvious if you consider that the notion
    of absolute present time within a simple inertial frame of reference is probably pure fantasy, a scientific whim based on nothing.

    No. Everything will be computed later using *values* of t_A, t'_A and t_B.

    No. Everything will be computed later using *values* of t_A, t'_A and t_B.

    What A need is the *value* t_B observed by B.

    But HOW should B send this value to A?

    One possibility: there is a HUGE clock and A peeps through a huge
    telescope and reads out the clock himself.

    That would work, but only if A adds the time for transit of the light
    from B to A to the reading.

    In case of the Moon, which is B in this example, the observer at A
    (Houston Texas in this case) would read out a clock on the Moon, which
    says e.g. '13:00:00 Moon-meantime'.

    The observer in Houston would interpret this as '13:00:01 Mmt', because
    he knows, the reading would be one second late.


    Another possibility: the crew of Apollo 12 reads the clock on the Moon,
    writes the value '13:00:00' on a sheet of paper and take that home to
    Houston, Texas, where they read it roughly one week later.

    This doesn't work at all, because the delay is way too long and of
    uncertain length.


    Another possibility: the clock upon the Moon and the observer there are replaced by an automated system, which sends encoded messages, which
    contain the time values in a form, that a computer could understand.
    This are received in rural Texas by a huge antenna and transmitted to
    the station 'A'.

    This would work, but is only a different form of example one.

    I wanted to define 'in synch' by another system, where the 'hyperplane
    of the present' actually represents a connection with infinite velocity.

    In 'spacetime terms' it has no 'thickness'. That means, the time across
    in the direction of time is zero.

    This could imagined, anyhow, by introducing a signal, which does not
    exist in reality.

    This would connect (if it would exist) across the entire hyperplane of
    the present, but without any delay.

    This hyperplane of the present would be comoving with the observer under consideration, hence would be 'relative'.

    Other observers have therefore other hyperplanes of their present, which
    is comoving to them.

    Now we have a common experience, that the surface of the Earth is
    actually a sperical sheet, which belongs to the same 'time-domain',
    because time around the globe streams in roughly the same manner.

    But this changes with hight and possibly with other parameters, like
    e.g. acceleration.

    Now this picture seems not very satisfying.

    But there is a very interesting application to this method:

    we could associate 'infinitely fast influences' with a static field.

    This means, that static fields are 'relative' and only appear to be
    static from a certain perspective (which is the timeline of the observer).

    We could e.g. call a standing rotation wave 'static', if the observer
    moves with it and in the same direction and at the same pace (along the imaginary axis of time).

    This would fit now to the description of an atom, if we regard atoms as 'timelike stable patterns' (what I did).

    This in turn would allow matter to be created from nothing or to
    disappear without a trace.

    For both of these possibilities there are examples.

    'matter out of nowhere' would fit to big-bang, for instance, but also to 'Growing Earth'.

    locations. Romeo placed on a park bench, and Juliet placed on that other bench, thirty meters away, will NEVER, BY THE NATURE OF THINGS, be able to synchronize their watches absolutely, that is, reciprocally. If Romeo, by
    some means, sets Juliet's watch to his own, Juliet will observe an even greater imbalance dt=2AB/c, and vice versa.
    Now, it is possible to synchronize oneself to a watch, that is, to its own present-time hyperplane, to its own universe simultaneity.
    Only, it is essential that this watch be equidistant from all the other watches in the universe, which is technically absurd. So we'll imagine a fourth dimension orthogonal to the other three, and place there, ideally
    at infinity, a virtual clock, which will be equidistant from all points in
    our 3D universe.
    And we'll assume that its hyperplane will be the reference for events in
    the universe. We can then date events based on something.
    Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to do anything.
    It would even be completely impossible to say whether the Titanic (April
    14, 1912) sank BEFORE or AFTER the Supernova-1987 explosion, since it
    depends on the observer's POSITION.

    But that's absurd.
    In relativity, you're no longer in a classical framework.

    In special relativity, what we are discussing in this moment, this is
    actually the case, because SRT is without acceleration, curved spacetime
    and so forth.

    The notion of absolute simultaneity no longer exists between A and B.
    I'm amazed that, after forty years of saying this, no one can truly

    This is what I have written several times now.

    I wanted to address the problem, that 'synchronization' would need to
    tune at least one of the two clocks under consideration.

    The best option would be to tune clock B to 'A-time'.

    But that isn't symmetric.

    If we want the process symmetric, we would need to introduce a third
    time 'C-time', which stems from a place in the middle between A and B.

    Only this method had several disadvantages.

    For instanced the method would only work for two points.

    Another method would use a hypothetical signal, which has no delay and
    could travel with infinite velocity.

    This signal would define synchronicity, but could not be used in
    practice (mainly because it doesn't exist).

    But we could add the delay 'by hand' and get a convincing story.

    This is so, because an event in say 3 ly distance will be visible in
    three years and one in 3 million ly distance in three million years.

    Therefore those two events can-a never be seen together, even if they
    happen at the same time.

    To say, that an event seen in 3 mio ly is happening now, because we
    can see it now, would be a horendous mistake.

    Therefore the 'hyperplane of the present' is not visible at all.

    Only a very small part can actually be seen in the direct vicinity.
    Everything else can only be seen with a certain delay.

    I see that you clearly haven't understood anything I've been saying for
    forty years.
    This anisochrony thing is very simple to understand; it simply indicates
    that the notion of a present-time hyperplane is specific to each
    observer, and that two observers only have the same time if they are
    conjoined (that is, in the same place even if their speeds are very
    different).

    I wanted to define 'in synch' by another system, where the 'hyperplane
    of the present' actually represents a connection with infinite velocity.

    In 'spacetime terms' it has no 'thickness'. That means, the time across
    in the direction of time is zero.

    This could imagined, anyhow, by introducing a signal, which does not
    exist in reality.

    This would connect (if it would exist) across the entire hyperplane of
    the present, but without any delay.

    This hyperplane of the present would be comoving with the observer under consideration, hence would be 'relative'.

    Other observers have therefore other hyperplanes of their present, which
    is comoving to them.

    Now we have a common experience, that the surface of the Earth is
    actually a sperical sheet, which belongs to the same 'time-domain',
    because time around the globe streams in roughly the same manner.

    But this changes with hight and possibly with other parameters, like
    e.g. acceleration.

    Now this picture seems not very satisfying.

    But there is a very interesting application to this method:

    we could associate 'infinitely fast influences' with a static field.

    This means, that static fields are 'relative' and only appear to be
    static from a certain perspective (which is the timeline of the observer).

    We could e.g. call a standing rotation wave 'static', if the observer
    moves with it and in the same direction and at the same pace (along the imaginary axis of time).

    This would fit now to the description of an atom, if we regard atoms as 'timelike stable patterns' (what I did).

    This in turn would allow matter to be created from nothing or to

    For both of these possibilities there are examples.

    But if A watches B's clocks through a large telescope, there ain't no

    A light signal could be used, however, if A sends a 'blink' to the

    Then the 'man on the Moon', for instance, could transmit the value of,
    say, '13:00:01' to the station A.

    Another possibility: the crew of Apollo 12 reads the clock on the
    Moon, writes the value '13:00:00' on a sheet of paper and take that
    home to Houston, Texas, where they read it roughly one week later.

    It would work very well.

    You seem to have forgotten what t_A, t_B and t'_A ARE. They have been
    read before in a very well defined procedure described in Einstein's
    paper. It could have been days before the astronauts' return. It doesn't matter.

    To have to wait a week before having clock A synchronized with clock B
    is not a problem.


    You failed to describe a method, by which the remote clock could be synchronized.

    This method is obviously necessary, because it was the aim to
    synchronize clocks.



    I had actually written about a possible method, which worked like this:


    clock B shall be synchronized with clock A.

    A sends a 'ping' to the remote station, measures the delay of the
    returned signal, cuts the time in half and regards that value as delay,
    which is expected in a communication between A and B.

    Now A sends the own time value plus that delay to B, encoded in some
    kind of message, which B can decipher.

    B reads that message, decodes the time value and sets the own clock to
    that value.

    Now both clocks are in synch.

    (There are a few conditions, however, which are usually not mentioned.
    Mainly A and B should not move in respect to each other and the speed of
    the signal should be equal on both ways).

    But you seemingly didn't like this method and Einstein didn't use it,
    anyhow.


    So: what else do you want?

    That the transit time for both directions is equal, for instance, would
    not synchronize anything, because the part is missing, which could
    eventually adjust a clock to some new values.

    So: how do you want to do that???

    "That's not at all what I'm trying to explain to you."

    (French isn't a good idea for this group).

    Well, you seemingly have some other concepts for relativty than those
    that I have.

    And most likely you are correct.


    But I use a certain 'backdrop' and that is Minkowski's spacetime and Poincare's concept local time.

    The observer is in this picture 'self-centered' and rests permanently in
    the center of the own frame of reference.

    Therefore any observer regards the own time a valid and running forward,
    while the observed universe is actually not universal, but the
    observer's own past light-cone.

    The axis of time is regarded as imaginary axis and the relations
    connecting with other objects are assumed to behave like complex
    quaternions.

    Now: what means 'simultaneous'?

    I take the axis of time of the local observer and construct its inverse,
    which is called 'hyperplane of the present'.

    All events upon that 'hyperplane of the present' are simultaneous for
    that observer in question.

    But this ain't universal, because already the axis of time isn't.


    Actually I would allow timelines, which run bachwards from the
    perspective of the observer.

    Also 'sideways' time would be possible.


    This is a possibility, because also matter is 'relative'.

    Therefore, if we could turn the axis of time a bit, we would see an
    entirely different universe, filled with other matter and other stars.

    A and B are in the SAME frame of reference, but not at the same
    place.

    No. Everything will be computed later using *values* of t_A, t'_A and >>>> t_B.

    What A need is the *value* t_B observed by B.

    But HOW should B send this value to A?

    It doesn't matter. I told you: pigeon, e-mail, mail, sound, written on
    piece of paper and thrown out. This is not a problem.


    Ok, you receive a letter from the Moon, saying 'we have now 13:00:00
    Moon mean time'.

    This is NOT what t_B is. You pretend to have read the article, but you
    show at every single post that you've forgotten its content.

    I have used this setting:

    station 'A' is located in Houston, Texas and station 'B' upon the Moon.

    A-time is usual Texas-time and 'B-time' was named 'Moon mean time'.

    Now we have a huge clock on the Moon and also an 'Apollo' crew to
    maintain the clock there.

    You wrote, that a number of methods would be possible by which Houston
    could be informed about t_B, which included also letters sent by mail.

    And I have written, that you should explain to me, what a letter with
    the time 'it's now 13:00:00 Moon mean time' arriving one week later
    would say.

    But you are in fact correct and t_B was defined as time of arrival of
    the signal in B, which was the meaning of t_B.

    Therefore the letter from the Moon should contain the message ' your
    signal arrived here at 13:00:00 Moon mean time'.

    Now: how do you synchronize the clock on the Moon with that information?

    He doesn't. His Holiest Procedure can't manage
    this case, it's outside its ridiculous
    requirements. The procedure works magnificiently,
    but only in gedankenwelt.
