In this paper, it has been shown that some experimental confirmations for the so-called“time dilation effect” may be in a rational way explained on the basis of a thought experiment pre-sented in a previous paper [J. Droz˙dz˙yn´ski, Phys. Essays 26, 321 (2013)]. The performed analysishas proven, that in order to carry out a round trip of a laser pulse from the source to a perpendicularlocated mirror and back to the starting point, the laser source in motion of the spaceship with a con-stant speed must be pointed at an angle in the direction of movement; whereas at rest it should bedirected perpendicular to that axis. This means, that we have not to deal with a “time dilationeffect” but with two separate measurements of two separate laser signals, moving at two differentdistances. The ratio of the two time intervals is expressed by a somewhat different equation asstated by the Special Theory Relativity and possesses also a dissimilar meaning. It has been shownalso that it can be evaluated by the observer in motion by himself as well as that the phenomenonof a relativistic length contraction does not exist. On this basis, a quantitative relation between timeintervals of such oscillations in two reference frames, which are in motion with a different speedwith respect to the frame at absolute rest, has been received. The relation may be of somesignificance for the Global Positioning System (GPS). A rational explanation of the “movingclocks” experiments as well as the “time dilation effect” of muons is presented. The existenceof “paradoxes,” resulting from Special Relativity has been excluded. A new elucidation of thenull result in the Michelson–Morley experiment is presented. The analysis was based onclassical physics and is giving additional evidence for the erroneousness of the principle ofrelativity.
