If we measure the speed of quantum of light in vacuum from different inertial frames the result will be the *same* - constant. > Socratus
Yes, that's exactly what I said. Jesse =. Why the result is constant ? Because all different inertial frames ( stars and planets of billions and billions galaxies ) exist in infinite motionless, stationary, fixed (rest) reference frame of Vacuum. Socratus === P.S.
