Message-ID: <260@sri-arpa.ARPA> Date: Sat, 8-Jun-85 03:19:58 EDT Article-I.D.: sri-arpa.260 Posted: Sat Jun 8 03:19:58 1985 Date-Received: Tue, 11-Jun-85 03:21:57 EDT Lines: 11 From: Rick McGeer As I thought more about this problem, I realized that something wasn't right. The frequency of a photon is not an absolute, but is rather a function of the observer's velocity with respect to the photon's source. Hence, what one observer views as a gamma ray another may see as a mini black hole. Now, it may be that to understand physics you have to be able to believe three impossible things before breakfast, but I will *not* believe that. Rick.
