No, as I explained to you when you were signing as "Abonito",
that's completely wrong.
1) That "point" does not move.
2) "points" cannot contract since they have no length.
Before you try to understand the transformation, you should
first understand what the variables in the equations stand for.
Can you try to explain what you think the variables mean?
