HARRY999...Of course according to the textbooks all of this is absolutely true...However in forming his theory on relativity, Is it not true to say that EINSTEIN took the speed of light (c) in your expression as an absolute i.e. nothing can travel faster than light ...not even a lightwave notionally launched from the crest of another lightwave....so until someone comes up with some alternative that works better than the current theory...we shall continue to live in a bounded universe...
