: SRT doesn't have a gravity field.
: If there is no gravity field , the space will be flat,

: ======.
: Is the " Minkowski space "abstract continuum, as everybody says?
: I think this space is a real one.
: I think this space is Vacuum.
: Why?
: 1. " Minkowski space "has no gravity field, but negative parameter.
: 2. Only Vacuum space has negative parameter : T= - 273.
: 3. And this negative parameter is united with space/ time ,
: which are joined together absolutely .
: 4. And the second SRT postulate tells about moving

This isn't a "small mistake", it's an outright arrogant lie:
'we establish by definition that the "time" required by
light to travel from A to B equals the "time" it requires
to travel from B to A' because I SAY SO and you have to
agree because I'm the great genius, STOOOPID, don't you
dare question it. -- Albert Einstein,
One track mind Androcles with his distorted quotes. And not a singleYou need first a space in order to have afterward points A and B in
piece
of logical reasoning why the time to travels from A to B should NOT be
the
same as the time to travel from B to A
it. Einstein considers the ether superfluous, not existing at all.
Then, he has only bodies to state his theory. If he considers a point
A over some body and another point B some distance apart, he needs to
be very careful when sending a light ray from A to B. A little ahead
in his writing he considers two clocks fixed to the ends of a moving
rigid rod, needing to re-synchronize them in a condition where vacuum
light speed is c in the "stationary system" and independent on source
velocity (postulate 2). But is the rod moving or not? For a
"stationary system" observer the rod is moving, for a "moving system"
observer the rod is at rest. This is why Einstein needs at the
beginning to DEFINE that light takes equal time to go from A to B that
from B to A, as part of his explanation about the meaning of the
"time" concept, reaching at the end to a relative time depending on co-
ordinate system. The time to travel from A to B IS different to the
time to travel from B to A if the points (clocks) are moving! Since
then, time is no more absolute (clocks synchronization as defined by
Einstein is frame dependent).
By the way, I think that the condition of constant velocity for the
moving rod is not necessary. The two clocks at the extremes of the rod
remain re-synchronized even changing later the velocity!
(This post is specially directed to both, Jeckyl and my good friend
Androcles.)

Of course, the second postulate of SR says that light will travel at c in
all frames of reference, so therefore the time taken MUST be the same fro A
to B and B to A. Otherwise the postulates of SR would not hold.
paragraphs of the 1905 Einstein's Jun 30 paper (it is not an easy
task!). Almost at the beginning of paragraph 2 you can read the second
postulate as follows:
{2. Any ray of light moves in the "stationary" system of co-ordinates
with the determined velocity c, whether the ray be emitted by a
stationary or by a moving body}
Notice that the postulate 2 refers ONLY to the "stationary" system and
NOT to the "moving" one. When an observer at rest in the "stationary"
system describes the process of synchronization of the two clocks
attached at the extremes of the moving rod, he obtains the following
result (almost at the end of paragraph 2):
t_B - t_A = r_AB/(c-v) and t'_A - t_B = r_AB/(c+v)
As you see, the time that expends light to go from A to B is NOT the
time it expends to go from B to A (for the "stationary" system
observer). But an observer at rest in the moving rod the things are
different. He claims that his system is the "stationary" one and the
"moving" one the other, applying Einstein's DEFINITION that light
expend in the "stationary" system same time going from A to B than
from B to A. Einstein definition in paragraph 1 plays then an
essential role in the definition of what "time" is, it is NOT a
consequence of postulate 2. (Androcles denoted it as "postulate 3").
There is no particular reason to think that because a rod is moving itsI tried to explain all for you above. In paragraph 1 Einstein DEFINES
clocks will or will not remain in sync. You cannot categorically say that
"the time to travel from A to B IS different to the time to travel from B to
A if the points (clocks) are moving" .. it really depends on your model of
the universe. Yes?
what simultaneity is, then defining implicitly what "time" is. Before
him no men was able to do that! And he does it in a form so natural
and trivial that I am completely sure that ANY person that reads it
for first time doesn't realize at all its meaning and importance.
Defining time Einstein is really making a Universe model, based on the
postulated constant vacuum light speed independent of source velocity...
in any "stationary" system!
But what is a "stationary" system? I am claiming that in 1905
Relativity "stationary" system must be always the centre of mass
inertial system corresponding to some body set (if ether doesn't exist
at all, bodies themselves are the unique ones that can determine an
inertial system, this is my reasoning). If you want to know more about
it see my following thread in this group:
