If an object in motion shrinks, what force is compressing it?right arrow
If anyone with non-changing motion can claim to be at rest, then from George’s perspective is Gracie (and the Platform) Lorentz contracted as well?right arrow
If two sets of observers each say the other is contracted, does this lead to a contradiction or a paradox?right arrow
If two observers in relative motion don't agree on durations and lengths, what do they agree on? Anything?right arrow
