...of "The Principle of Relativity" copyrighted by Lorentz, Einstein, Minkowski, and Weyl. Moreover, there is the paradox of rapidly rotating discs (like a Frisbee) moving near the speed of light, wherein the physical form must constantly change due to the tensor mechanics. And these physcal changes must occur without generating heat, or violate the Laws of Thermodynamics. D.Y.Kadoshima
