Frames of reference do not depend on how you or me define them. You missed something in learning about relativity, but maybe this will help: SR has to do with frames of reference in which there are systems moving at constant velocity wrt each other. GR has to do with systems that are accelerating wrt each other. In SR, the inertial systems are moving at CV within their FoR. However, because everything in the universe is in motion, the systems inside an SR frame only APPEAR to be stationary wrt each other. In fact, they are are both moving at the same speed and in the same direction. |
