"the ray moves relatively to the initial point of k"
That is the closure speed , otherwise he would simply say the ray moves at c-v
I just showed you what he meant look at my mathematics I had to even write the equation relative to the initial point in system k
>>> Observer position = 1 light second + 0.5C * time <<<
The situation he portraits means the closure speed of light would be c-v which is exactly what he says.
He said what he meant you can't interpret it any other way.
I am not denying anything I am showing you what he said why would I care one way or the other, I am reading what he said. Your comment that I an denying something is completely ridiculous what am I denying?
Do you want the truth or me to lie?
I am asuming you are trying to intimate that he said the speed of light to be something other than c for some reason.
If you go back up a bit in the article he states why he is doing this example and it is to show the effects of the constant speed of light so he is hardly then turning around and saying it does change.
