Does the Speed of Light Slow Down Over Time?
Ebert, Ronald
Reports of the National Center for Science Education, v17 n5 p9-11 Sep-Oct 1997
The speed of light is a fundamental characteristic of the universe. So many processes are related to and dependent upon it that, if creationist claims were true, the universe would be far different from the way it is now. The speed of light has never been shown to vary based on the direction from which it was measured. (PVD)
