Say there are three points: Point #1, Point #2, and Point #3.
Say Point #2 is being observed by both Point #1 and Point #3.
Given the Schwarzschild spacetime geometry below,
** c^2 (1 - 2 U) dt^2 - dr^2 / (1 - 2 U) - r^2 dO^2
Where
** U = G M / c^2 / r
** dO^2 = cos^2(Latitude) dLongitude^2 + dLatitude^2
How do you write an equation to include both Point #1 and Point #2
relating the spacetime geometry at Point #2? Would the one below be
correct?
** c^2 (1 - 2 U_2) dt_1^2 - dr_12^2 / (1 - 2 U_2) - r_12^2 dO_12^2 =
c^2 (1 - 2 U_2) dt3^2 - dr_32^2 / (1 - 2 U_2) - r^32^2 dO_32^2
Where
** U_2 = Gravitational potential at Point #2
** r_12 = displacement from Point #1 to Point #2, etc.
