Abstract: The sunlight takes about eight minutes to arrive to earth, and gamma rays received from the early universe travel billions of years to do so. These are empirical facts, depicted by the basic principle (t = x/v). However, the epistemic implications of such delays were neglected not only in Isaac Newton's dynamics, but also in modern theories of physics, including Einstein's theories of relativity. In this lecture, we shall describe the dynamical laws which arise when accounting for the delay in information received from a moving body. For purely gravitational systems we shall describe the set of "relativized" Newtonian laws, for the cases rectilinear, and rotational motion. Our approach in deriving the laws is axiom-free, and completely physical. The derived relativistic laws are very simple, aesthetically appealing, and universal with respect to the velocity of the information carrier (light, sound, seismic waves, etc.), and the size and mass of the moving body (particle, atom, planet, galaxy, etc.). We shall demonstrate that these laws generate predictions, and plausible explanations to a multitude of observations and experimental results, including dark energy, dark matter, gravity, matter-wave duality, and entanglement.
