Absolute time and absolute simultaneity
We discuss here an interpretation of special relativity that relates directly to space-time coordinate effects that have a specific physical meaning. The main result of our interpretation is that absolute time and absolute simultaneity of events in different inertial frames are fully
compatible with special relativity.
