Resumen o descripción

This article is devoted to the key concept of modern electrodynamics—the

invariance of the speed of light. The general principle of relativity is considered

in detail. Some critical remarks to the relativistic invariance and to the

Lorentz transformations are presented. The general invariance of Maxwell

equations is discussed. Different theoretical expectations for possible results of

Michelson-Morley experiment and some physical consequences are considered.

Some critical remarks to the notion of the light speed and its constancy

are given. The relativistic law for velocity addition, including strangeness of a

noncollinear addition and a superluminal motion, is discussed. Critical analysis

of two works which proof the need for existence of an invariant velocity is

consequentially made.
