You say that reference frames refer to rest/motion variability, and the vacume is considered by most scientists to be without motion so they infer that light speed measurement is constant regardless of the source frame, is that correct?
I was looking for the answer to Nobody's question to Dave.
I like to ask another question also.

Will photons travel at the speed of light out from a flash light, if the flash light is traveling at say, half the speed of light?

Is the speed of a photon, from a source, constant no matter what the speed of the source?
