At time t = 0 in the Earth frame, the Earth observer determines that rocket A, travelling to the right at vA = 0.80c, is at point a, and rocket B is at point b, travelling to the left at vB = 0.60c. According to the Earth observer they are separated by a distance l = 4.2 x 108 m as shown in the other figure.
