The constancy of the speed of light is one of the main postulates of
special relativity. According to this postulate, the speed of light in
vacuum is the same in any inertial frame. In addition, special
relativity also requires that the speed of light is the maximum speed
of objects in vacuum.
Every measurement confirms the speed of light to be c, regardless of
any body's postulates or theories.
