Umm as much as I would like to say yes. I don't think so.

As for example the best I can give is imagine a sphere. Not of mass mind you but of Space-time a Quanta of such a thing. it is nothing in a sence. Distance perhaps.

Now this sphere wouldn't qualify unless it uniformially expanded retaining it's sphere shape meaning all "edges" are equal distance from the center. Also take into concideration that this sphere is expanding outward or inward at the speed of light, c. so it is subject to relativistic effects or rather is a relativistic effect. it would be accelerating at the rate c along several equal but oppisite axises. each could be concidered x.

So that lorentz tranformation equations hold true for it particularly of t' and x'. Perhaps I'm wrong or misspoken.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
