1. The Need of New Approaches - Kritische Stimmen zur ...

Chapter 9: The Thought Experiment
(3) To refute the criticism, the statements made merely repeat the known claims of relativity as the conclusive
truth. At best, this approach can only console those making the statements, but it cannot dispel the criticism. In
particular they serve up the old, known supposed experimental results, as though the criticism of these supposed
results has not long since unveiled these as pure propagandist lies. One would welcome instead a rebuttal of this
criticism. One will have to wait until these people find the courage to truly address the criticism raised.
(4) In a few rare cases the statements do actually appear to address the original works of the critics, but then
unfortunately revert to personal denigration of the authors.
(5) In striking contrast to their disinclination to address the critical original works the authors are developing a
strangely passionate interest in uncovering the identity of G. O. Mueller. Apparently they believe that uncovering
the identity of the author of the documentation will release them, in some magical way, from occupying themselves
with the proven 3789 critical publications.
As long as they do not know the identity of the project members, they cannot divert attention to the persons
involved. This leaves them short of one of their old tricks; a real piece of bad luck for the poor relativists!

The 12 New Approaches of our Research Project and the Results
So far we have outlined the new approaches taken by our project since 2001:
1. The documentation of the criticism as a new basis of criticism of the theory and the introduction
of the history of physics
2. Avoiding the trap of publication by a publishing house
3. Diagnosing the relativity catastrophe as a case of educational incompetence
4. Compiling an open record of the thought experiment
5. Demanding the fundamental right of scientific freedom
6. Also drawing attention to the indisputable basis of the commentary to basic rights
for the demand of the critics for scientific freedom
7. Quantifying the volume parameters associated with the catastrophe
8. Acknowledging the vindication of honour by the mental resistance of the critics
9. Publishing the open letters to prevent the future Great German Excuse
10. Reaching the international level
11. Ensuring the supply of the libraries and exposing the observed efforts aimed at censorship
12. With the partners, creating and utilizing new opportunities for the critics in the Internet
What results have the new approaches brought so far? The aim of informing the public about the relativity
catastrophe has still not been achieved, but we have at least come a bit closer to this objective and have gained
more knowledge as to the obstacles still to be overcome.
We see one important result achieved so far, thanks to the above-outlined activities engaged in by the project
and by its partners Ekkehard Friebe and Jocelyne Lopez, as being that a whole series of common points long-since
and repeatedly raised by the critics of relativity have now been collected in print as clear and objective arguments
constituting a persuasive body of evidence.
And as a consequence of her persistent questioning of the MPI [Max Planck Institute], Golm/Potsdam (Germany),
Ms. Lopez has obtained an official admission by the responsible representatives of the institute, that the supposed
length contraction of the special theory of relativity does not represent a physical alteration of the bodies in question.
This confirms the objections raised, on this issue, by many critics of relativity and it points the way to breaking
through the wall of silence.
In particular, the chronology of the great critical tradition throughout all the decades itself can demonstrate the
relevance of this criticism and can remove the basis of the legend propagated by the relativists, that there was only
a small amount of criticism in the early years of the formation of the theory and that this was refuted. The number
of proven critical publications and the - meanwhile - also increased number of abstracts speak for themselves and
occasionally force even previously convinced supporters of the theory to reconsider their attitudes.
