Don't worry, the speed of light has been fixed.

No, really!

This "scientist" named Einstein came up with this theory that said the speed of light was a constant.  And everyone believed it.  (well, after a careful psyop, and a rewriting of the college physics text books)

Unfortunately, the speed of light kept changing when they measured it.  It was different at different times of day.  Different in different parts of the world.  And every year, <a href="https://www.thefreedictionary.com/metrology">metrology</a> (the study of measurements) group would get together and average out all the measurements they got that year, and then publish it.

You can see this if you get old science text books.
The front cover has a table of values.
And the speed of light changed every year.

But!  The speed of light was supposed to be constant, so the metrology group got together and set the speed of light.

Now the speed of light is fixed!

Its all better now.

Can you imagine that?
Can you even conceive that scientists would do such a thing?

You don't SET the speed of light, you measure it.
You get the data, and then make conclusions from it.
You do not go and discard the data because you want a different conclusion.

This is just bad science.  And it is at the heart of modern physics.

But, there is something even worse.
The meter is defined as a measurement of the wavelength of light, which is directly related to speed.

So, if you measure the speed of light with the units of meters, you always get the same result.  You will never know if the speed changed.  The meter is a rubber ruler that is stretched or squished to keep constant with the speed of light.

Measuring things with a rubber ruler?  Really scientists?

But, what do you expect from a group that threw out the notion of the luminiferous aether, with what could barely be called an experiment?

They are still arguing over whether a photon is a particle or a wave.

And with advances in the double-slit experiment, they should have thrown out all of those silly notions.
(basically, if one slit, than photons act like particles, if two slits, than photons act like waves, unless you watch it...)

So, modern scientists have hamstrung themselves twice with the understanding of light.  Thus, in order to make progress, modern scientists will have to go back hundreds of years to get back to reality, to the data, and start anew their attempt to understand light.

Here is a thought experiment.
If a photon was a particle, imagine how light gets to you from a distant star.
As light gets further from its source, the photons would be spread out more and more, so, at a distance of a few light years (the closest stars) the chances of your eye running into a photon from that star is minuscule.  Even if the star is sending out trillions of photons a second.

(And to make matters worse, the early astronauts stated that you can't see stars in space.  Later, NASA had all the astronauts change their story.)

We have a lot of work to do to understand light, but first we have to dig ourselves out of the hole we dug ourselves into.

It is apparent from tests that the speed of light changes via all kinds of conditions.
There are many tests that show that the speed of light is slower than many other speeds. (like magnetism)
Still other tests show that light responds to consciousness.
And further, that we are not seeing all of light.  Not speaking IR and UV, but that there is light in the EM range in which we see, that we do not see.

By "fixing" the speed of light, scientists have proven that science is broken.

Fortunately, there are (very) brave people who are exploring the reality around them and bringing us some fascinating new results.  The future looks bright, as some non-scientists are turn on the light.
