Firstly constant motion is just a relative concept - at least with the car there is the issue of acceleration which legitiamtely lets us say that it is the car that is moving.
That is why I removed acceleration from my example.
Secondly there is the problem that it would be SPACE itself that would have to be moving for the idea to make any sense - and so far as I can tell that makes no sense either...
That is why I made the universe a closed system. With all of the windows painted we canot see or sense anything beyond the hypothetical universe, which is actually the situation we are in.
I believe that it is time for nipok to visit
