For example, observation, someone bought up the bouncing ball on a train scenario, the stationary observer would see the ball covering a greater distance to the chap that was bouncing it, hence by simple math the ball is going faster....NO... Get a High speed camera and pan that shot, and you wouldnt even know he was moving, hence no change,,,the same rules apply,,we have an extremely narrow window of observation,,,the change on the scale we are discussing is considerable... we can not see it , we make asssumption on our narrow view of things...just a thought
