Your mixing machines. Particle accelerators have nothing to do with atomic

Do the math, use the correct frame of refernece for delivering energy to a 
payload. It moves and is not a rest frame like a acclerator base.

Einstein and I agree as would you if you stoped mixing frames and machine and 
could actually do some math. which is an ability not demostrated by you.
