It would seem so. I recently read that photons cannot decay; in relativity theory their clocks are stopped from the point of view of every frame of reference.

One theory I like since their "clocks are stopped" zero time running in their reference frame then length contraction should be infinite. No time or distance in a photon's reference frame (from the photon's point of view). Solves the "spooky action at a distance problem" between two entangled photons because there is no distance between them in their reference frame.

Waiting for the better educated to throw rocks at me ;^)
