Postulates of Special relativity
• The Principle of Relativity – The laws by which the states of physical systems undergo change are not affected, whether these changes of state be referred to the one or the other of two systems in uniform translatory motion relative to each other
• The Principle of Invariant Light Speed – "... light is always propagated in empty space with a definite velocity [speed] c which is independent of the state of motion of the emitting body."

Newton theory vs special relativity1. The existence of infinitely
many inertial frames. Each frame is of infinite size (covers the entire universe). Any two frames are in relative uniform motion.
2. The inertial frames move in all possible relative uniform motion.
3. There is a universal, or absolute, time.
4. Two inertial frames are related by a Galilean transformation.
5. In all inertial frames, Newton's laws, and gravity, hold.
1. Same as the Newtonian assumption.
2. Rather than allowing all relative uniform motion, the relative velocity between two inertial frames is bounded above by the speed of light.
3. Instead of universal time, each inertial frame has its own time.
4. The Galilean transformations are replaced by Lorentz transformations.
5. In all inertial frames, all laws of physics are the same (this leads to the invariance of the speed of light).

Aberration
• Star γ Dra – change of position (Bradley, 1727)

Aberration, not parallax
Bradley was searching for parallax, but discovered aberration of light. Parallax was found only 100 years later.
Parallax depends on distance Aberration does not depend on distance
