Thanks to all who have responded so far. I think these responses
though are a little off the main point. I was not trying to figure
out how the observers would be able to read the signs, just assume
they have special cameras that could catpture an image of the sign or
they have really good eyesight and can actually see the read the
signs. The point of the question is to see how SR would answer what
seems to me to be a paradox whereby each observer thinks that he is
stationary and the other is the one that is moving at 0.8 "c" without
relying on a clock on the star being in synch in one frame of
reference and out of synch in the other.
Uncle Al and his crew are usually all over these seeming paradoxes,
why hav'nt they answered this one yet?
