Really? Can we show this? Because it isn't obvious to me. If I
imagine a small cube sitting on a rotating disk with no translational
velocity and allow the disk to rotate at relativistic speed, the cube
will be Lorentz contracted except when it is moving perpendicular to
my line of sight. Now add to that translational motion and I don't
immediately see why the rotational effect should go away.
