Our galaxy is moving with a definite velocity with respect to the background
radiation which most believe to be from the Big Bang.  This movement would
seem to indicate that there IS a preferred reference frame in which to
measure velocity, that is the one in which there is no relative motion
with respect to the "location" of the Big Bang.  Has anyone done any
work along these lines, especially involving the consequences for
the various theories of realitivity?
