    It starts with the lack of a proper definition of t_A and t_B.

    If disconnected local times are meant with 'A-time' and 'B-time' and
    t_A was measured in 'A-time' and t_B by means of 'B-time', than
    t_B-t_A would be an illegal operation to begin with.

    Therefore t_A and t_B must be based on 'A-time' only. And that in turn
    would make 'B-time' irrelevant.

    That isn't bad at all, because the clock in B shall be synchronized
    with the clock in A, anyhow.


    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    |-a at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    |-a proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which
    |-a are simultaneous with these events.
    |-a If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    |-a respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer

    |-a neighbourhood of B."

    An observer at A can determine the time value of the clock at A.
    An observer at B can determine the time value of the clock at B.
    Got it?

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "But it is not possible without further assumption to compare,
    |-a in respect of time, an event at A with an event at B.
    |-a We have so far defined only an rCLA timerCY and a rCLB time.rCY

    It is not possible to compare the time of events at A and
    the time of event at B without further assumptions.
    Got it?

    So we have to make further assumptions:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "We have not defined a common rCLtimerCY for A and B, for
    |-a the latter cannot be defined at all unless we establish
    |-a by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    |-a from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    |-a B to A."

    The _definition_ of simultaneity is that light uses the same
    time to go from A to B and to go from from B to A.
    Got it?

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "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."

    tA, tB and t'A-a are precisely defined as:
    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected ray hits A.
    Got it?

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

    For this equation to be true must
    -atB = (tA + trC#A)/2 = tA + (t'A - tA)/2

    Note that Einstein says nothing about how to make
    asynchronous clocks synchronous. He only says that
    if-a tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB (or TB = tA + (t'A - tA)/2)
    then the clock at A and the clock at B are synchronous.
    This is a definition of simultaneity, not a description
    of how to synchronise clock.
    --------

    How to synchronise clocks depend on a lot of circumstances,
    and it would be stupid of Einstein to define a method
    which should be applicable for all cases in all future.

    To illustrate this problem let's ask:
    How do we synchronise TAI and UTC clocks?

    Let two clocks A and B be stationary at the geoid at equator.
    Clock B is a distance L east of clock A.
    We know that clock A is synchronous with UTC, and we want to
    synchronise clock B to UTC.

    How do w do it?
    The problem is that TAI and UTC clocks are synchronous in
    the non rotating Earth centred frame of reference (ECI-frame),
    they are NOT synchronous in the ground frame.
    But the clocks A and B are moving in the ECI-frame,-a and
    we can't stop the spinning of the Earth to sync the clocks.

    What a pity that the nonsense of your idiot guru
    is practically unusable...

    through gravitational fields. Even though the source is the same
    distance from Earth rCLas the crow flies,rCY the photons would arrive at different times. If we just measured travel time, we might think the
    second photon came from a more distant source, even though both
    originated from the exact same emitter.

    Fwiw, here an example 3d version I made using my experimental n-ary
    field. You can explore it in real time. It's not animated, so its a
    static view. However, it shows the rails that photons can ride. Not
    infinite here, but just a way to show it:

    We know that the star and the Sun were 10000 light years

    and the Sun still are ~10000 light years away from each other.

    Ten-thousand years is actually nothing in cosmology, which deals with
    millions of light-years.

    well, now we have a 'little' problem:

    if we have millions of years as delay, then we can't call our impression
    of the stars 'real'.

    It is like a postcard from the last century, which is delivered today.

    sure, the picture and the content were once real.

    But the sender might already be dead.



    And for million years the two stars have transferred energy
    (light) to each other, and will keep doing so for million
    of years.


    The main problem isn't that, but that distance is very hard to estimate
    in cosmology.

    Since everything moves within our galaxy and within the rest of the
    universe, an error in measurement of the distance would be equal to an
    error in the positions.

    We could see a star moving to, say, the left in the foreground and a
    star moving to the right in the background at the same time at a
    relatively close position.

    And because it's so hard to determine the true distance, we could
    actually be in error, which star is in the background and which one is
    actually nearer to us.

    So we could find a relation between two seemingly close stars, which
    were never that close.

    The stars are at any time living side by side ~10000 light years
    from each other.

    That is't necessarily the case, just because you see two stars that way.

    That we happen to live close to one of them doesn't make them
    "belong to separate times."

    They are both living at the same time.
    'living' is not the right phrase for pictures of stars.

    I meant:

    if you have a depth in a picture from the night sky of several thousand
    light years, for instance, you need to consider, that background events
    belong to a different time than foreground events.

    The discrepancy is actually huge and can easily be millions of years.

    Therefore pictures of the backgrond stars and the forground stars do not
    belong together, but should be corrected because of different delays.

    Unfortunately we don't know the exact delay and we also don't know,
    which stars are actually the background stars and which one belong to
    the foreground.

    We only assume, that some theories are valid, which enable us to
    estimate the distances.

    But those theories are most likely wrong.TH

    You really are decades behind the times.
    (and it is most of your opinions that are just plain wrong)

    FYI, in the meantime we have seen the Hipparcos and GAIA missions,
    and we have direct distance measurements (by parallax)
    of more than a billion stars, accurate to a few percent,
    all the way out to the galactic centre.
    Those stars have been measured repeatedly over the 10 years of the GAIA mission, so we also know their proper motions accurately. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_(spacecraft)>



    If you see a star in say 1 million light years distance and some stars
    in two million light years distance, than they belong to different times.

    The difference is actually huge, because we're talking about one million years, within which the stars had moved.

    But you cannot even estimate the direction, into which they move (up,
    down, left or right) because only the 'z-axis-movement' is measurable
    (with red- or blueshift).

    To measure the direction perpendicular to the direction of sight, you
    would need to measure at least two positions of that star. But that
    would take way too long for a single human beeing to become measurable.

    So stars move and we don't even know towards were they move and not how
    fast.

    This would be quite unfortunate, if you want to estimate their current distance in respect to each others, because they had 1 million years to
    move and we don't know the direction.

    Precision wouldn't help that much, because even the sharpest of all
    telescopes cannot make the movement of distant stars faster. And for geometrical reasons the angles to measure are very small, if the star is millions of light years away.


    We do know the delays you worry about,
    and we do know which stars are near,
    and which are far away.
    We also know which stars are really double,
    and which are aligned by coincidence.


    All we see is actually a picture. This picture was sent towards our
    position long ago and the longer ago the further away.

    Since everything moves, we had to correct the delay somehow, but can't
    do that, because we cannot even know the correct distance.

    What we could know in principle, even if that is heard to measure, that
    is the direction ond the velocity of the movements of stars.

    To bring all stars into the same 'time-sheet' we would need to measure
    their individual path and calculate their position, where they were in
    the considered time.

    That is actually quite difficult and certainly annoying. That's why I
    assume this had never been done.

    We have an accurate 3D map of the galaxy,

    Well, I have doubts about that.

    | Therefore we see things, which are not real and which do
    | not belong to the same time.

    We see that the star was real 10000 years ago, and if it was
    a main sequence star then, we know that it still is a real
    main sequence star now.

    It is indeed a weird idea that a star that was real 10000 years
    ago is not real now.

    What do you think the stars we see in the telescope are?
    Mirages?

    We know that the star and the Sun were 10000 light years
    from Each other 10000 years ago, and we know that the star
    and the Sun still are ~10000 light years away from each other.

    Ten-thousand years is actually nothing in cosmology, which deals with
    millions of light-years.

    well, now we have a 'little' problem:

    if we have millions of years as delay, then we can't call our impression >> >> of the stars 'real'.

    It is like a postcard from the last century, which is delivered today.

    sure, the picture and the content were once real.

    But the sender might already be dead.



    And for million years the two stars have transferred energy
    (light) to each other, and will keep doing so for million
    of years.


    The main problem isn't that, but that distance is very hard to estimate >> >> in cosmology.

    Since everything moves within our galaxy and within the rest of the
    universe, an error in measurement of the distance would be equal to an
    error in the positions.

    We could see a star moving to, say, the left in the foreground and a
    star moving to the right in the background at the same time at a
    relatively close position.

    And because it's so hard to determine the true distance, we could
    actually be in error, which star is in the background and which one is
    actually nearer to us.

    So we could find a relation between two seemingly close stars, which
    were never that close.

    The stars are at any time living side by side ~10000 light years
    from each other.

    That is't necessarily the case, just because you see two stars that way. >> >>
    That we happen to live close to one of them doesn't make them
    "belong to separate times."

    They are both living at the same time.
    'living' is not the right phrase for pictures of stars.

    I meant:

    if you have a depth in a picture from the night sky of several thousand >> >> light years, for instance, you need to consider, that background events >> >> belong to a different time than foreground events.

    The discrepancy is actually huge and can easily be millions of years.

    Therefore pictures of the backgrond stars and the forground stars do not >> >> belong together, but should be corrected because of different delays.

    Unfortunately we don't know the exact delay and we also don't know,
    which stars are actually the background stars and which one belong to
    the foreground.

    We only assume, that some theories are valid, which enable us to
    estimate the distances.

    But those theories are most likely wrong.TH

    You really are decades behind the times.
    (and it is most of your opinions that are just plain wrong)

    FYI, in the meantime we have seen the Hipparcos and GAIA missions,
    and we have direct distance measurements (by parallax)
    of more than a billion stars, accurate to a few percent,
    all the way out to the galactic centre.
    Those stars have been measured repeatedly over the 10 years of the GAIA
    mission, so we also know their proper motions accurately.
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_(spacecraft)>



    If you see a star in say 1 million light years distance and some stars
    in two million light years distance, than they belong to different times.

    The difference is actually huge, because we're talking about one million
    years, within which the stars had moved.

    FYI, the galaxy is 'only' 100 000 lightyears across.

    But you cannot even estimate the direction, into which they move (up,
    down, left or right) because only the 'z-axis-movement' is measurable
    (with red- or blueshift).

    See, you are ages behind the times,
    and completely out of touch with reality as it is today.

    To measure the direction perpendicular to the direction of sight, you
    would need to measure at least two positions of that star. But that
    would take way too long for a single human beeing to become measurable.

    See, you are ages behind the times,
    and completely out of touch with reality as it is today.

    So stars move and we don't even know towards were they move and not how
    fast.

    See, you are ages behind the times,
    and completely out of touch with reality as it is today.

    This would be quite unfortunate, if you want to estimate their current
    distance in respect to each others, because they had 1 million years to
    move and we don't know the direction.

    Precision wouldn't help that much, because even the sharpest of all
    telescopes cannot make the movement of distant stars faster. And for
    geometrical reasons the angles to measure are very small, if the star is
    millions of light years away.

    See, you are ages behind the times,
    and completely out of touch with reality as it is today.

    Why don't you learn something about reality
    before you start making stupid comments on it?

    Now, God moved upon the face of the

    then he 'prompt'; , Let there be light: and there was light.


    The 'science community' is trying to move the order of events

    "waters of the earth"
    "Let there be Light"


    to

    "Let there be Light
    "waters of the earth".


    Here are clearly the 'order of events':

    1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

    2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon
    the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the
    waters.

    3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light



    I mean, I understand the goal of the 'scientific community' is to
    assasinate God so thst the Science guys want to rewrite creation...
    but it ain't going to work.

    There is no cure for 'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.'.

    And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon
    the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the
    waters.
    And God said, Let there be light: and there was light


    27,000,000 years is a fake number. And they know it.

    It's Hollywood accounting.
    It's cooking the books.

    Ask the Math department. They get hired by people who want ot cook books all the time.


    It is the sci.math department that comes up with tweaking 27,000,000 years to keep the horse up front.

    Yous are not even allowed to answer that question, let alone ...ask it.


    27,000,000 years is a fake number. Ask the Math department.

    Here is how it works:

    They get a Math guy..
    and they ask him,
    "How much does 2 plus 2 equal?"

    The Math guy pulls down the shade
    and sez, "How much do you want it to equal?"

    They say "Great! You're hired to work in our Science department!!"

    The Math guy ask, "What do I gotta do?"


    They say, take line number 2 and move it to number 3, and move line
    number 3 to number 2.

    2. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon
    the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the
    waters.

    Comets with shit loads of water impacting the primordial Earth?

    It's interesting to me. Like fish spawning in a river or something.


    you might as well say aliens from another planet added the water...

    This is too highly engineered... The fish spawning in a river or
    something, seems rather "natural"? ;^)

    I don't understand what you are getting at..

    I already posted the answer the Earth came first.

    Humm. Not sure how to respond to that line of thought. I still think >>>>>>> stars came first? Humm.

    Is that just a 'feeling' you have, or is it based on Science that
    stars came first?

    Stellar nurseries came first.

    Okay, I'll make it easy for you..

    What came first, Night or Day?

    Both! Depends on the rotating planet?

    It takes Night and Day to make a Day.

    I mean, I don't understand your logic with rotating planet.

    It's night on both sides, and then There Is Light..eventually on
    either side.

    Its night for some people on the planet and day for others. Depends on
    the rotation... :^)



    What was your science teacher's name in school, Stevie Wonder????

    When you get home, don't you turn on the lights??

    and then There Is Light.

    Do you sleep with the light on?




    Do you like to watch Black and White movies?

    Oh, I forgot, you like to watch White and Black movies...

    don't forget to turn on the lights before you go to sleep.

    How do we synchronise TAI and UTC clocks?

    Let two clocks A and B be stationary at the geoid at equator.
    Clock B is a distance L east of clock A.
    We know that clock A is synchronous with UTC, and we want to
    synchronise clock B to UTC.

    How do w do it?
    The problem is that TAI and UTC clocks are synchronous in
    the non rotating Earth centred frame of reference (ECI-frame),
    they are NOT synchronous in the ground frame.
    But the clocks A and B are moving in the ECI-frame, and
    we can't stop the spinning of the Earth to sync the clocks.

    The following calculations are made in the ECI frame.
    v = 465.1 m/s v/c = 1.55e-6

    We assume that at t = 0 the clocks are synonymous and show 0.
    That is at t = 0, tA = 0 and TB = 0.
    If we send a light pulse from clock A to clock B, clock B
    will move away from clock A at the speed v.
    We can calculate the time the light pulse will use to hit B:
    ct = L + vt => t = L/(c-v) = (L/c)ria(1 + 1.55e-6)

    That means that if clock A showed t1 when the light pulse
    was emitted, then, to be synchronous with clock A, clock B
    must show t1 + (L/c)ria(1 + 1.55e-6) when the pulse hits it.

    TAI clocks are routinely synced after the basic principle shown above.
    (The details are different of course. Satellites, optic fibre, radio)

    What a pity that the nonsense of your idiot guru
    is practically unusable...


    Interesting, but not surprising, to see that you believe
    that Einstein invented the International Atomic Time
    which consists of hundreds of clocks kept in sync with each other.

    BTW, have you got a wristwatch?
    That clock is in sync with UTC, showing UTC + 2h.
    Is your wristwatch practically unusable?

    But thanks for yet another demonstration of your ignorance.
    Well done!
