OT: Maxwell had long ago saw that the speed of light is fixed in all reference frames but he simply didn't recognize what that meant. Yes, Lorentz equations were used as a starting point because it's practically basic mathematics that represent different reference frames, but his equations did not predict time dilation / length contractions. It was Einstein who has interpreted Maxwell's correctly and modified the lorentz eq.

It is possible that maybe others parallel-discovered and saw the discrepency but obviously they did not act upon it. Columbus and the egg my friend.


PS: I suppose NASA never went to the moon either?
