[QUOTE="Harte, post: 34092, member: 443"] [b]Re: Cern[/b] Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity applies to objects moving within the same inertial reference frame. Two objects, both accelerating in opposite directions, are not in the same inertial reference frame. Nonetheless, IIRC, their combined velocities relative to each other (as observed from the objects themselves) [I]cannot[/I] exceed the speed of light. Since there is no "stationary" point in the universe from which one could measure [I]absolute[/I] velocity, then from the point of view of the Special Theory, there is no difference between in the one case considering one point stationary and the other moving and and the other case of considering both points moving toward each other - that is, both points of view are each as "valid" as the other. Hence no matter how you look at it, from the perspective of the moving objects in question, their relative speeds with respect to each other cannot exceed that of light. IOW, there's no way to get more energy from such a collision than a lightspeed head-on collision with a stationary object. That's my take, though I might be wrong. Harte [/QUOTE]
