1.0 Introduction
This paper studies the light sphere paradox of Einstein’s special theory of relativity and demonstrates that the failure to establish a correct mathematical analysis of this problem has allowed a major flaw in that theory to be turned into the foundational mathematical basis of that theory, which is unfortunately false and erroneous.
2.0 Background
Unlike the much more famous paradox of the twins, the light sphere paradox is relatively unknown. It has not produced the volume of critical discussion or commanded the attention of critics of relativity that it deserves. The author could find only one reference to this paradox in an Internet search and only four references to it in his collection of relativity books.
2.1 Description Of Paradox Of The Spheres
The best introductory discussion of the paradox is presented in Basic Concepts of Relativity, by R. H. Good, pages 39 and 40. Good asks the reader “Suppose a light pulse emitted from a stationary source at the origin at time t=0. It then spreads out with velocity c in a spherical wave front, as seen by an observer at rest relative to the source…Now an observer in another frame of reference moving uniformly in the x direction with velocity v relative to the first frame will also see a spherical wave front spreading out with the velocity c from the origin of his reference frame, assuming that the origins coincide at t=0. This is not what one would expect intuitively; one would expect the sphere of light to remain centered on the source, and consequently to move with different velocities in different directions away from the origin, as seen by the observer in the moving frame.”
