§ 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!!
