@howallworks @martinmbauer Nope. Go away and think about it for a day or so and get back to me.

@howallworks @martinmbauer Btw. this is somewhat similar to the concept of 'gravitationally bound' objects. Smaller than a certain size the cosmic expansion force can't overcome gravitation force, so objects stay ~ the same proper length.

@howallworks @martinmbauer I'm not ignoring the problem. Maybe try to write down some maths of what exactly you think violates SR. E.g. exactly what equation is violated. Instead of thinking in lengths maybe try spacetime coordinates, and use with Lorentz transforms.

@howallworks @martinmbauer This does not violate SR. You can transform between the spaces just fine.

@howallworks @martinmbauer Which reference frame are you length measurements supposed to be in?

@howallworks @martinmbauer I agree that no superluminal particle movement will occur, but exactly how does this contradict special relativity?

@howallworks @martinmbauer I must have missed when a ruler was accelerated in space to relativistic speeds

@howallworks @martinmbauer It absolutely does. Oh well, let's stop arguing. Anyway if you are so confident, go accelerate a ruler in space and see what happens. Then you can receive your Nobel prize.

@howallworks @martinmbauer so yeah the proper length of the top ruler increased rapidly as its atoms are accelerated.
