Yeah, but even people like the Greek, Romans, Aztecs and Egyptians knew one or two things about the universe around us way before the 17th century.Those guys in the very early science times where so great, their minds were absolutely free and independant.
Take this:
The first one who calculated the transfer speed of light was Ole Christensen Romer from Denmark, in....1676!!
He found a speed of 225000 km/s, not bad to me.
He just studied the variations in the time the moons of Jupiter disappear behind that planet, depending of the distance between earth and the planet.
Can you believe that?
If everything is relative, then it is also relative that "everything (which is an absolute term) is relative" is also relative - ergo everything is not relative after all............On 2003-09-24 08:57, samplaire wrote:
And here comes Einstein! Everything is relative.
