This paper presents an innovating way of deriving the special theory of relativity (SR). This paper proposes that, contrary to the popular belief, the SR is derived from the absolute inertial reference frame (AIRF). In other words, the AIRF exists and can be found. To validate the derivation, this paper uses the AIRF to explain Michelson-Morley experiment, Lorentz contraction, transverse Doppler red-shift, and time dilation. Then most importantly, a method of finding the AIRF will be revealed by examining the effect of simultaneity on the wave phases observed by a moving inertial frame.
