Surely in Romer's measurement the light only
goes One Way making it an OWLS measurement.

How did the distance get known? Two (and more for accuracy)
successive measurements, and clocks to determine velocity, and
angles to establish where in the trajectory. Jupiter becomes a
remote synchronized clock. The distance becomes a TWLS
established value.

Given Kepler's laws, the relative sizes of the orbits
were known. Pin down one distance and you scale the rest
accordingly. Various geometrical tricks were used to
determine the scale, including estimates of the Moon's
distance by shadow geometry during eclipses.

Add Newton and a local determination of G and you can
calculate the distances directly from observed periods.

Why? I don’t see any light ray returning to

They inferred a speed by... measuring the difference in time...
and dividing that into *a known distance*.

I continue without seeing any TWLS. To divide a time difference by a

known distance is the more normal way to measure an OWLS.

A known distance is only that, a known distance. Read at the beginning

of paragraph 1 of the 1905 Einstein’s Jun30 paper how he uses
Newtonian mechanics, Euclidean geometry and Cartesian co-ordinates.
Yes, Einstein established a procedure to synchronize two clocks
situated in any two different points of Euclidean space, but the
distance between the points exist with independence of if you
synchronize or not clocks in them. Your assertion about a known
distance being a “remote Einstein synchronized clock” is totally out
of place (I understand know why are you saying that a known distance
is related with a TWLS measurement).
Quote:

Good, because this still is not at issue.

I don’t understand your short comment,

I get tired of being dragged away from the OPs "question", into
your interminable and single-minded discussion of a paper 103
years old.

You were the one introducing here TWLS and OWLS, claiming it as your

solution of the Ops question about 1905 SRT, and I accepted to discuss
it with you. And now you feel dragged away from the Ops question?
Quote:
maybe owed to my deficient English. My
intention was to write “possible or not an

doubt about the meaning of the "at issue"

You cease to discuss the OPs question, and insist on discussing
something you feel to be related.  I do not feel it to be
related, and the OP has stopped responding on this thread.  I
have lost interest.

Notice you only now that the OP never put a second post? Now you said

that TWLS and OWLS have nothing to be with the OP question, being you
precisely the one who introduced them here to solution the Ops
question? And after accepting me to discuss with you about what surely
you feel related, you then accuse me for doing what you do?

This is not a new type of problem in Physics. Since Newton’s

accepting him that it is out of any possible experimental measurement.

You know that this is my usual behaviour in this group. I respect the
opinions or decisions of any person here, including yours. I never
insult a person or take into account an insult to me. By the way,
among the things that David doesn’t continue addressing with me are
the c ± v expressions in Jun30 1905 Einstein’s paper, the ones that
you are continually referring here. Why you reject to discuss this
topic with me? I remember yet our two months long dialogue that you
stopped precisely in this point some years ago, and I remain still
open to continue it.

==============================================
Mathematics has nothing to do with respect, opinion or decision, and
everything to do with proof.
IF Einstein said
 some function of  x'/(c+v)  is equal to that same function of x'/(c-v)
THEN
 Einstein was an idiot who didn't understand mathematics.
ELSE ... (there is no else, he did say it).

We can have y=x2 and also y=f(x) and y=f(-x), being f some function of

x and at the same time being the same function f of –x. I don’t know
if this is related or not with your point. Better put a precise
reference about where in 1905 Einstein’s Jun30 paper you think there
exist an evident mathematical error. I get my copy at http://www.fourmilab.ch
. I will be very happy to analyse it jointly with you.
Quote:
Talking about actual experiments are irrelevant.
As far as you are concerned, you just want to argue and
your arguments get increasingly ridiculous as they go further
into mysticism and away from logic and mathematics.

I agreed with you. A mathematical error can’t be justified by any

experimental measurement.
Quote:
Einstein's THIRD postulate, which you are too stupid to recognise

This is for me the most important Einstein’s assertion in all his

paper. A new DEFINITION of time. Simultaneity defined for different
points of an Euclidean space. Explain to me why do you say that it is
false. I you are surprised for the word “Euclidean”, go to the
beginning of paragraph 1 and you will find it jointly with “Newtonian”
and also with “Cartesian”. As distance AB equals BA (Euclidean, no?),
declaring the times “equals” is compatible with a constant and
isotropic vacuum light speed c. I confess you that perhaps in my first
hundred readings of the paper, I didn’t realize the importance of that
definition. It seems to me so natural and evident, something so close
to human common sense, that the need for being a DEFINITION was
maintained obscure to me for many years.
Quote:
Now what possible opinion could you have that can change that?- Ocultar texto de la cita -

In 1905 vacuum light speed was supposed to have the constant c value

only in the ether, and a different one (c±v) in any of the other
frames (remember the design of the M&M experiment). This was a
consequence of the assumed unique time for all the frames. To say that
vacuum light speed is the same in all frames was a contradiction with
that. Einstein resolved that contradiction incorporating his new time
DEFINITION in the second postulate, making it compatible with the
first postulate (the same vacuum light speed c for all frames, but now
a different time in every frame, making the ether superfluous, being
now the bodies themselves the unique ones able to be related in
inertial systems). In that way Einstein extended Galileo’s Principle
of Relativity to be valid also for electrodynamics, obtaining his 1905
Einstein’s Principle of Relativity, that jointly with the new second
postulate formed 1905 Relativity. I don’t pretend, Androcles, that you
will understand all of this in a single first reading. You are in a
different road since many years. I am sure you will be interested in
proving me wrong.

The procedure of allocating parameters to Jupiter's position, and
its moons positions, *is* clock synchronization, whether
Einstein's great grandfathers were still gleams in his
great-great grandfathers' eyes.

I used the term because you know what it means. I used the term
because it is exactly applicable. I used the term, because it is
well known that it can only return a TWLS result. That you can
ignore the payload, does not mean there isn't one.

As to drifting from the topic, you challenge that it is possible
to measure OWLS (the heart of the OPs question). I contend that
Nature thinks we are fools to consider what cannot be measured.
