C) Observers that are accelerated will see light beams move at something other than lightspeed.
D) Light has the same speed for all nonaccelerated observers, regardless of the motion of the source or observer.
E) No physical experiment, conducted entirely within your own lab, can tell you how fast you are moving relative to anything outside the lab.
