Just for fun. Time relative to energetic states changed as velocity changes in a thing. The faster the thing the slower the time in it, theoretically comparable to the time for me watching it, i.e. for my five mintues it is aged 2 minutes. If watching it from behind, as it moves away from me the light is subtracting from itself one hertz per second so that the apparent lower colors of the spectrum fall below light wave definitions to radio waves. Viewing the thing from the front, its light spectrum is shifting up or adding in the same rate as the subtraction noted from the rear view for it, so that its radio waves become infra red or heat, its gamma become cosmic. Question: How was the normal frequency spectrum defined for light and at what velocity (ignoring earth/solar orbit and solar/galaxy orbit velocities).

I am sorry, but you are very misinformed. What you were referring to in part of your example was how the frequency of light changes as we move. This is the same as the Doppler effect in which the same thing happens to the frequency of the sound. However the speed of sound is still quite slow compare to light. Because you can actually out run sound. However light can not be out ran no matter how hard you try. The speed of sound is the true universal constant because it is the same no matter what frame of reference you are in.

That is the whole point of Relativity...the speed of light is constant within any frame of reference. Therefore, whether or not we are moving through our solar system and our solar system is moving within a galaxy which moves through the universe...the speed of light as observed by us relative to our movement is the same as it would be in other inertial frames of reference. The electromagnetic frequency spectrum is therefore compensated by relativity for our frame of reference as well. There are no absolutes.

Those are a lot of words you've typed. Wish I knew what the h***
you were trying to say. I'd suggest a class in syntax and grammar would help you considerably.
