Shalimar treaty

[Frumour]

Hi. I´m not Star Trek fan, but i need your help. I need to find out when The Great Betrayal happened. I have read about this in one physics book and I would like to watch the part (or even the movie) when the great betrayal happened. I´m not even sure whether it really was in Star Trek. Here is the link with the informations about the problem. http://personal.ph.surrey.ac.uk/~phs1ja/1STR/1STR-Lec9n.pdf Thanks for your help

As far as I can tell, this is not really part of star trek. There is no 'shalimar treaty' in any of the TV shows or films, as far as I know.

I've googled it, and it seems this is just a hypothetical scenario for debating the viewpoints and predictions of 'einsteinian, relativistic' theory, and how those predictions would clash (or not) with what 'superluminal observers of events' could observe (e.g. races that can travel faster than light).

The names of two publicly well known 'star trek races' seem just tagged onto it, in order to make the introduction of the debate somewhat more accessible.

The only Google listed Trek connection I see is this thread.

Hmmm. Dryson?

No, I mean this thread we're in right here, right now. I had searched for the thread title.

Well, I didn't say I googled on the connection, specifically. I googled simply on "shalimar treaty", and the top hit is this one:

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=23465

where it states

"The Shalimar Treaty is a strange treaty about the light-speed barrier, and it's implications on causality. On the surface it is a fictitious peace treaty between Klingon and Federation forces, that backfires. Secondarily, it is between the camps of Einsteinian Special Relativity, and the observers of superluminal events. "

I'd call that a trek connection (even though it is perhaps not specifically listed by google as such).

After my first reply, I saw that the pdf listed in the opening post starts with this statement:

"This is an example taken from the book by Taylor and Wheeler (Spacetime)."

.... so I suppose the entire example comes just from that book.

I'm pretty sure the Shalamar treaty was when Don Cornelius first signed the band, and the Great Betrayal was when Jody Watley left the group to have a string of mainstream hits that were more popular than anything the group ever did, and then only returned when her solo popularity had ended.

For The Win!

My first thought was the band. My second thought was the perfume, which I bought as a gift for a girlfriend back in the 80s.
