If space is made of light-bands, then stretching a band stretches the light with it. Like a rubber train on a rubber track — stretch both equally, and the time it takes to travel the track stays the same. The Phurlon is always the shortest connection between two points, even if that connection stretches. No amount of distortion changes the speed of light; it remains constant, grounded in the unchanging traversal time.
In the PTM, the Phurlon length (or just Phurlon) defines the shortest link between Phenom (string vector points). Though space may stretch, the time to traverse this link remains fixed — preserving the constancy of light speed.
Space is stretchable, but traversal time is not.
Light travels along elastic “Phibres” between two points (Phenom). These Phibres can stretch or contract, but the time it takes for light to travel between the two ends is always the same.
This preserves the speed of light as a constant, even when space warps.
(tₚ) = constant
The minimum, unchanging duration for causal connection.
All traversal by light happens within this fixed time unit.
(ΦΝ↔) = stretchable
Shortest path between two points (Planck length), but stretchable
It represents the shortest link between Phenom (Phibre vector points), not a fixed ruler. Space can distort, and this “Phibre vector distance” stretches with it. (A rubber ruler)
(c) = (ΦΝ↔) ÷ tₚ
Even if ΦΝ↔ changes due to spatial distortion, the fixed tₚ ensures that (c) stays the same.
The smallest possible (but stretchable) plane on any of the Phenomena's membranes. They are the triangular faces of the Phenomenon formed from 3 intersecting Phibres of exactly 1 Phurlon (stretchable Planck) between vertices
The 3 internal Planes of the Phenomenon with a Phen at their centre. They are the 3D projections from the Phen that collide with the Philter of Phrames to form the internal structure of the Phenomenon. They are also made from stretchable Lengths (Phurlon)
The Phlats come in 3 stretchy bubble gum flavours of Plum, Orange & Lime:
P dimension - Plum (Purple horizontal X & Z Phlat) B-, R+, B+, R-
PΦΝ◇ = Plum Phlat = (B- <–> B+) + (R- <–> R+)
O dimension - Orange (Orange Vertical Z & Y Phlat) R-, Y+, R+, Y-
OΦΝ◇ = Orange Phlat = (Y- <–> Y+) + (R- <–> R+)
L dimension - Lime (Green Sideways X & Y Phlat ) Y-, B-, Y+, B+
LΦΝ◇ = Lime Phlat = (Y– <–> Y+) + (B– <–> B+)
Plus in the POLECS we use an alternative notation for the Phen to denote its position not it's properties
E = Emergence - The Phen, Center, Origin, Projection point
