The was equation was already derived from Maxwell's equations. The pemeability and permitivity of the vacuum determined the speed. It's perfectly natural to suppose that there is no such thing as motion relative the vacuum (to nothing). So the speed of light in vacuo is a constant. Brent If the vacuum is nothing, how can it have properties such as permeability and permitivity? Is this scholastic type thinking? Maybe, but it still deserves an answer.
