At the chosen event use the orthonormal frame in spacetime from the hint. The electromagnetic energy density isand the energy flux is the Poynting vector . Depending on the index convention, the required contraction is or . In either case,Rescaling and rotating the spatial frame covers arbitrary future timelike and future causal . Thus the Maxwell field satisfies the dominant energy condition.
