Abstract

According to Einstein, Special Relativity Theory (SRT) is valid for inertial reference frames in constant relative translation. But such a condition is never fulfilled in nature, where curved paths and accelerations are everywhere present. This situation implies questions that are devastating for SRT; any answer at all is fatal to SRT and to the Lorentz transformations (LT?s) it implies. Furthermore, comparative analysis of classical optical experiments and other ?relativistic? phenomena reveals arbitrariness and confusion about the experimental validation of SRT. Actually, what has been experimentally established is an unclear amalgam of SRT and general relativity theory (GRT). The foundations of both theories are thus brought into question.
