This is, of course, from the point of view of a far distant observer whereas a local observer (located alongside the light source) would determine c for both beams however this is solely due to the fact that his measuring rods and clocks are physically distorted by that field.


Let me get this straight. Are we saying that light does not always travel at c; it only seems like that to an observer?

There never was nothing.
