Assuming the existence of a fundamental aether frame and the anisotropy of the one-way speed of light in the Earth frame, two facts supported by theoretical arguments and repeatedly confirmed today by experiment, J. Levy derives a set of space-time transformations that are more general than the Lorentz-Poincaré transformations. The implications for fundamental physics are shown to be far-reaching.
