@ajstylesclash1 because c like in e = mc^2 is the speed of light only in a vacuum much like epsilon-not is the permeability of a empty space. It is not the actual speed of light under any other circumstances that would change it's speed.
@johnnyckrock Because he is accelerating at the speed of light, that is the only viable answer to the person within the craft. So relative to him it happened at two differant times. Relative to the outside camera it happened at the same time. :)
OK, help me out here: why do you assert that for the guy in the rocket, the lighting strikes did not happen at the same time? They did happen at the same time, he just experienced one before the other. Nothing unusual about that. What if the lightning strikes were recorded by synchronized clocks, one at each end of the rocket? When he compares them afterwards, will they not record that the 2 events happened at the same time?

@TheTaben Photons don't have mass. That's how they are able to travel at the speed of light.

@ajstylesclash1 Particles have mass and drag every single one of them. even photons, or light.

the problem with relativity is that the speed of light is based on absolute space.

@ajstylesclash1 speed of light in a medium is constant... speed of light in vacuum being the highest...

If the speed of light is constant how can it slow down inside of air particles?
