Even and spacetime
Even light itself does not have a " velocity " of c in this sense ; the total velocity of any object can be expressed as the sum where is the recession velocity due to the expansion of the universe ( the velocity given by Hubble's law ) and is the " peculiar velocity " measured by local observers ( with and, the dots indicating a first derivative ), so for light is equal to c (- c if the light is emitted towards our position at the origin and + c if emitted away from us ) but the total velocity is generally different than c .( Davis and Lineweaver 2003, p. 19 ) Even in special relativity the coordinate speed of light is only guaranteed to be c in an inertial frame, in a non-inertial frame the coordinate speed may be different than c ; in general relativity no coordinate system on a large region of curved spacetime is " inertial ", but in the local neighborhood of any point in curved spacetime we can define a " local inertial frame " and the local speed of light will be c in this frame, with massive objects such as stars and galaxies always having a local speed smaller than c. The cosmological definitions used to define the velocities of distant objects are coordinate-dependent-there is no general coordinate-independent definition of velocity between distant objects in general relativity ( Baez and Bunn, 2006 ).
