The frame of reference of the Sphere Observer is now behaving as a western physical 'inertial frame of reference'. However, it is not, as usual in the west, linked to a spatial, so-called Cartesian coordinate system, but to a coordinate system in which all periodicities of the Earth's years, days and seasons are coordinated.

Note 22 Inertia from Latin inertia means: the property of bodies to persevere in their current state of rest or motion.
Note 23 In euclidean space, each point is indicated by three coordinates perpendicular to each other: the x, y and z axes. This is a Cartesian coordinate system.
Note 24 In Western physics, the concept of 'inertial frame of reference' is connected to a Cartesian coordinate system in which objects that do not experience any external forces, are motionless or move uniformly in a straight line. Since all inertial frames of reference move uniformly relative to each other, measurements can, with a simple transformation, easily be converted from one frame to another. Newton Mechanics uses the Galilean transformation, the Special Relativity Theory employs the Lorentz transformation. The earth's surface, by the way, is not an inertial frame of reference, because our planet is rotating.
Note 25 The Special Relativity Theory only applies for observers at constant speeds, that do not experience any gravity. General Relativity extends Special Relativity by giving inertial frames of reference a localized meaning: a coordinate system associated with an observer in free fall.


Despite the fact that the eastern inertial frame of reference, due to the free fall of the (Sphere) Observer, has a lot in common with the extremely modern Western one, they should not be confused. The eastern inertial frame of reference applies to subjective observation only, and that is certainly not what Western physics advocate with their inertial frame of reference.

However, the intention of east and west is the same: what matters is a natural recognition of the universal applicability of the chosen frame of reference.

Obtaining an inertial frame of reference can therefore be regarded as the pinnacle of the initial hypothesis. This applies to both east and west.
