Einstein didn't base SR on MMX, though the results of MMX were of particular interest at the time, and any theory developed would have to be able to explain it. He based SR on the postulate of the principle of relativity and the postulate that the speed of light was the same in all frames. The theory he derived was, along with some others, able to explain the MMX results. That does not mean that it had to be the only theory that could explain MMX .. that's not how science works. Further, his theory was able to explain other experimental results that other theories were not able to explain, so those other theories were refuted (eg the normal ballistic theory that you mention). So there is no problem there are all. You'll have to do better than finding a single experiment that more than one theory can explain to discredit SR. In particular you'll have to find an experiment that definitely refutes it. |

Spirit of Truth Please remind me of this false interpretation (and who made it) The people doing the experiment. It was wrongly thought out. Really .. it was trying to detect movement in the ether, and ended up showing there was none (at least of the type they were looking for) What do YOU think they were trying to find? And why do youthink it was poorly thought out They expected an interference when no interference would ever result from it per regularly relativity. What on earth is "regularly relativity"? Is that somehow related to the simple ether theory they were testing for at the time? |

1. Is it true that after a 90 degree rotation, the interference pattern should change (assuming the ether theory is correct) - e.g. would a 70 degree phase difference have a different interference pattern to a 20 degree phase difference? During the time of the MMX, the Aether that allows for light propagation is modeled similar to a medium that allows for sound propagation. Thus, the answer would be yes. However, the null results do not mean the Aether does not exist. It could also mean that the Aether does not behave anything similar to the medium that allows for sound propagation. shrug 2. (this question has a yes or no answer) - is it possible to show mathematically that as the apparatus is rotated, the interference pattern and the phase difference should change (assuming the ether theory is correct). Yes. This is true for sound waves. shrug 3. Was the "null result" of the experiment the fact that the interference pattern didn't change when the apparatus was rotated? According to expert interpretations, yes. 4. Did the experiment at the time, depend on the path lengths of the two paths being exactly equal and was any effort made to make them equal or was this completely unnecessary? If the experiment is performed through all orientations, it becomes unnecessary to set the lengths of each arm precisely. 5. I've heard that the error/noise/inaccuracy of the original experiment was too great for its result to be meaningful. If the experiment depended only on observing the change in interference pattern, what kind of error could invalidate this result? This is a good question. There have been enough interpretations to the null results. I give them the benefit of the doubt that they are indeed correct but willing to keep an open mind. The absolute frame of reference was actually detected through a Doppler shift in the Cosmic background radiation 100 years after the MMX. The self-styled physicists turned their backs on this monumental discovery because they have already BELIEVE IN the nonsense of SR. Well, Peter did not recognize Christ three times anyway. shrug |

It is perfectly consistent with LET, which has an aether, and also with ballistic theories. |

That's the whole point. It showed there was no simple ether, so light propagation by such an ether was refuted (though some tried to use ideas like ether drag, which are ad-hoc and don't really work). |
