From 1905 the SRT doesn’t give sleep.
1.
One postulate of SRT takes vacuum as reference frame.
Another postulate of SRT takes inertial reference frame (s).
Can we say what these two (2) reference frames are equal ?
No, they aren’t equal.
Why ?
Because all inertial reference frames are relative.
And vacuum as reference frame isn’t relative,
it is motionless, fixed reference frame.
/ Michelson - Morley experiment. /
2.
In one reference frame speed of ‘Electrodynamics Bodies’ is constant.
In another reference frame speed of ‘Electrodynamics Bodies’ is relative.
3
And the Lorentz transformations explain interaction between
these two postulates.

P.S.
"Einstein's special theory of relativity is based on two postulates:
One is the relativity of motion, and the second is the constancy
and universality of the speed of light.
Could the first postulate be true and the other false?
If that was not possible, Einstein would not have had to make two
postulates. But I don't think many people realized until recently
that you could have a consistent theory in which you changed only
the second postulate."

INTRODUCTION
Modified 01-10-11

Hans J. Zweig, With a PhD from Stanford, a masters degree
from Brown and a B.A. from University of Rochester:
#
Newtonian physics is not the ultimate truth about the universe,

but neither is Einstein's Relativity. Newton did not know, or anticipate,
an upper bound to motion. Einstein cannot simply have it that all motion
is relative and at the same time that there is a unique hard upper limit, c.

Einstein’s Special Relativity Theory (SRT) attempts to solve the problem,

but it is invalid, as can be shown using several distinct approaches:
(1) through a logical analysis of the important concepts and
thought experiments,
(2) through recently available empirical results in astronomy, and
(3) through a physical/ mathematical analysis of the foundation of SRT.
. . . . . . . . . . . .

The ultimate truth is still hidden from us but is somewhere

between these extremes.

Why do you persist in talking about things you don't understand? I've corrected you several times about the postulates of special relativity and you're still repeating false ones and confusing yourself. Once again, they are: all inertial reference frames are equivalent, and the speed of light in free space is a constant, c, in all inertial reference frames. They've got nothing to do with using the vacuum as a reference frame.

One postulate says:
In vacuum the speed of quantum of light is constant.
It is correct that ‘a vacuum doesn't have a measurable
rest frame’. Why?
Because in vacuum the speed of quantum of light is maximum
and time is stopped, become infinite, unlimited. It means that the
reference frame of vacuum is also infinite, unlimited.
And infinity we cannot measure.
But this doesn’t mean that infinite vacuum doesn’t exist.
We have theories ( thermodynamics and quantum physics) which
explain us the parameters of infinite vacuum.
#
If we measure the speed of quantum of light in vacuum from
different inertial frames the result will be the *same* - constant.
Why?
Because all different inertial frames ( stars and planets of billions
and billions galaxies ) exist in infinite motionless, stationary,
fixed (rest) reference frame of Vacuum.

The vacuum is not a frame of reference, there is no special fixed reference frame according to SRT, so all your questions based on the presumption that there is don't mean anything. Is there a university anywhere near you? If so, go to its textbook store and pick up the undergraduate text on special relativity. If it's any good, you won't need mathematics any more complex than what you get in secondary school to understand it, it's fully explicable with just basic linear algebra and Euclidean geometry. It'll answer all your questions.
