The Michelson-Morley Experiment Physicists have misinterpreted evidence obtained experimentally many times in the past. When I was going to college [1940s] and was in physics class the teachers were not entirely sure what the Michelson-Morley experiment proved or even if it was a valid experiment. Was the premise, under which they ran the experiment, really was going to prove what it was they set out to prove. I have recently discovered, in investigating the Ether theory, that is really is quite popular these days. Some of the things that Einstein came up with and some of the things that Michelson-Morley experiments seemed to indicate actually are in contradiction to one another. Einstein says it does not make any difference what direction you pointed anything in for receiving a light beam, light was always going to travel at the same speed. He even said that if you have light coming from a star on this horizon and there is light coming from a star on the opposite horizon and the photons come passed you instead of going into your eyes and pass one another some people say, “Well, obviously, they pass one another at twice the speed of light.” But Einstein’s theory says that they pass one another at the speed of light; it is a constant regardless of what situation you have. Light travels only one speed in a given medium. So I do not know how Michelson-Morley’s experiments could even hope to prove itself or whatever it was they claimed they proved, which was Ether drift. They expected light to be traveling at a different speed depending on whether it was going across or with or against the flow of Ether, but that assumed that Ether flowed and that may not be the nature of it.
