Nope. The Lorentz Transformation is to transform measurements of events in one frame to another frame, as Mikko told you. > Since relativity does not involve an ether, applying the Lorentz > Transformation in this context is nonsensical. The Lorentz Transformation says nothing about an ether,it is simply a transformation of events from one coordinate system to another. You apparently failed Relativity 101. No wonder you are confused.
