§ Assume strictly and only from the Michelson - Morley Experiment ( 1887 ) - that is, we know nothing more than that which is obtained from this famous experiment and its ad - hoc solution:
1).
"Lorentz Length Contraction" of
in frame
moving away from stationary frame
as measured in
.
2).
"Lorentz Time Dilation" of
in
moving away from stationary
system as measured in
.
3). Assume also the extent of the distance of the light flash from

describes a rigid rod.
§ Some definitions:
a). In system
:
.
b). In system
:

since
is moving away from
with velocity
.
c). Because

This latter is true because the entire system
is relatively moving away from system frame
with velocity
in
- time
.
§ Lorentz Transformation Equations Derivation:
I. Using "Lorentz Length Contraction" ad - hoc assumption of the Michelson - Morley Experiment ( 1887 ),
.
This part was easy!
II. We will be using "Lorentz Time Dilation" ad - hoc assumption of the Michelson - Morley Experiment ( 1887 ) in this rather more complicated following derivation:
.
Nothing more to say!!
