Thinking out loud - always a dangerous thing.

Is there a distinction here between 'is contracted' and 'appears to be contracted'?

As a general question. What happens when 2 intertial frames 'meet' or 'intersect'? Do they become the same for that instant? Or are they still different due to differences in their direction of momentum.
