This problem is even much more complex: In order to observe, we use our eyes, which in turn use photons. At the same time almost all what we observe, specific the physical behaviour of stars and the planets, does not require photons and the speed of light. The same is for the physical laws that describe this behaviour. Along that same line all objects in the universe influences each other. This requires one common approach and one reference frame and invalidates the use of different reference frames i.e. one for each galaxy.
The idea behind Display 5 and 6 is to study the universe from the point of view of all objects involved and not from the point of view of a single observer. The fact that the universe is everywhere the same is mainly to show that there is nothing special and that the rules (laws) that apply are valid everywhere. Each 'galaxy' in Display 5 and 6 is identical and consists only of one star. The result of a simulation, of one BH and one star, shows that such a binary system is very stable. The physical assumption is that there exists no mass transport between both objects. The question is, if in case of star S62 this assumption is realistic because of the high speeds involved when S62 is at perihelion. Physical it is possible that S62 type stars can loose mass. This same question arises if all stars considered are like S62.
Time dilation as the name suggest, implies that time is not constant. To understand that you must first have a clear or accepted definition what time is. That is not simple.
We humans experience (are aware) of our existence and we experience that always or all the time. We humans also experience that there exists an external world outside us. We call that the universe. We also assume that these objects existed before we were born and will exist after we die. As such based on our experience we can claim that the universe exists in time, over a long period and we humans exist in time, over a short period. Time is not something physical compared with the existence and the evolution of the universe. As such we cannot claim that time changes because if it does we have to explain: changes compared to what, and that is impossible. Based on our experience we can claim that the universe physical changes compared what we have observed yesterday but the same cannot be said about time.
As such there exists nothing, which we can define as Time dilation
Clock dilation is something physical. Clock dilation is related to the physical behaviour of a clock, specific to the behaviour of different moving clocks. This type of physical behaviour is already known for a long time, specific related for clocks on board moving ships. Time keeping for ships is important to calculate their positions.
The general idea behind a clock is to have something which behaves in a cyclic (or oscillating) pattern and each cyclic is considered a count. In order to measure time with a clock, the clock has to be calibrated. Roughly speaking that means that at noon you must reset your clock and measure at noon the next day, the number of counts of your clock. When that number is n, a simple calculation shows (roughly) that 1 count = 24*60*60/n seconds.
The main assumption is that the clock should not move, because the physical path that the oscillating object follows will become longer. For a clock using light signals this is (simple?) to explain. Such a clock uses a light signal which bounces (up and down) between two mirrors. When a clock is at rest this is a vertical straight path up and down. When the clock moves towards the right the mirrors also move towards the right. The result is that the path that the reflected light signal follows becomes longer as original and as such the clock ticks less.
The main problem is exactly what means at rest. However the main underlying cause of Clock dilation that the clock which travels the longest path through space, ticks the slowest.
The underlying lesson is that performing physics, measuring time, don't use moving clocks.
The uncertainty principle expresses the fact that we humans can only perform measurements within certain limits. The universe evolves and changes in time. There are two specific reasons why uncertainty principle is mentioned:
Now we return back to the 3D universe in total and consider the question: what are the rules that describe how objects (stars) interact which each other. Part of the answer lies in the observation that all what interacts is mass or gravitational mass. That means all black holes, all visible matter and all dark matter. There exists no difference between each.
