Why it's here
Used as the standard reference in threads about light speed, clock synchronization and untestable assumptions in physics.
What it covers
Veritasium explains why the one-way speed of light has never been measured, only the round-trip speed, since measuring it requires synchronized clocks that assume the answer. It explores the implications for relativity.
