Title: Immediate Objectives
1Immediate Objectives
- 1. To describe the physical basis for clock
retardation experimental results (e.g., particle
lifetimes) 2. To describe the physical basis
for length contraction experimental results
(e.g., Michelson-Morley experiment) 3. To
explain why Einsteins theory happens to give
correct results, despite being based on
unsupported postulates 4. Show that 1, 2, and 3
are consistent with the behavior of fractal
particles in the fractal cosmos

15Is Einsteins Relativity Theory Superfluous?
Einstein special theory of relativity  Step 1.
Assumes two principles  Relativity

mechanics  Step 1. Shows physical basis for
clock retardation  Step 2. Shows physical basis
for L-F contraction  Step 3. L-T follows for
specific measurement methodologies  Step 4. Two
principles follow from L-T
16Superfluous Vs. PreposterousÂ

- Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears
- I come to bury Einstein, not to praise him.
- The evil that men do lives after them
- The good is oft interred with their bones
