Do Maxwell`s equations need revision?
... Historically, Voldemar Voigt (in 1887) and Sir Joseph Larmor (in 1900) [25, 26] were the first to derive precursors to the Lorentz transformations (see also [27, 28]). As the above lines suggest, however, time as it appears in the Lorentz transformations is a more appropriate variable than any absol ...

But such a thing appears not to exist! This was the first child-like thought experiment related to the special theory of rel ...

Time in physics
Time in physics is defined by its measurement: time is what a clock reads. In classical, non-relativistic physics it is a scalar quantity and, like length, mass, and charge, is usually described as a fundamental quantity. Time can be combined mathematically with other physical quantities to derive other concepts such as motion, kinetic energy and time-dependent fields. Timekeeping is a complex of technological and scientific issues, and part of the foundation of recordkeeping.
