A lie, as expected from relativistic trash. GPS shows it
clearly - time (as defined by your idiot guru himself)
is not dilating. While muons and accelerators are 
irrelevant to time (as defined by your idiot guru 
himself).

No. TD is a fictive "confirmed observation", which between us, makes no 
sense. Sort of Fictive Force, but much worse. Since you can't define Time 
properly. Since trying to define Time, would reveal Oximoronity in 
Relativity.

Michelson rotated the apparatus to double the predicted value of the expected fringe shift but instead got zero. He should have admitted his logic was wrong but instead proclaimed the aether nonexistent.

Complete, made-up bullshit.  You have NO clue whatsoever.

Wrong.  He got a value about 30% of what he expected, but his errors
were greater than that value.

When are you going to admit you don't have any logic nor any clue

The bullshit is not mine; it is Michelson's as per 

American Journal of Science, 1881, 22: 120-129
The Relative Motion of the Earth and the Luminiferous Ether
by Albert A. Michelson. Master, U. S. Navy:

If, now, the apparatus be revolved through 90° so that the second pencil is brought into the direction of the earth's motion, its path will have lengthened 4/100 wave-lengths. The total change in the position of the interference bands would be 8/100 of the distance between the bands, a quantity easily measurable.

Why do you delusionally believe that's wrong based upon motion through the
classical aether?

It is wrong because it was not observed.

YOU are the one that is wrong.  EVERY experiment comes out right.  A null
result tells something VERY important.

This is TOTALLY irrelevant and COMPLETELY wrong-headed.  The light paths
were of such a length as to cancel out the beams at the detector.

If the two light paths were exactly the same length, the beams would have
INTENSIFIED, not subtracted.  You demonstrate that you don't understand
physics.

He claimed the CLASSICAL aether nonexistent.

True.  So what?

Once more you fail to define what you mean by "real."

Then you made a stupid mistake since they CAN'T be equal.

SR is consistent with the outcome of the MMX and doesn't need length
contraction.  So what?

Says the dunce who doesn't understand physics.

Sure it can IF such an aether existed.

So what?  It has NOTHING to do with the outcome of the MMX.  SR says
no length contraction occurred in the MMX, physical, theoretical or

Do not lie, stupid!

Michelson has measured a speed: 12-8 km/s to the north-south direction.
sqrt(n^2-1) = 1/40 for the air index: n = ...

so, he measured ~400 km/s in fact, what is a quite correct speed of the Sol sys.

No. They are cited to show that SR is a VALID theory. No physical theory can 
ever be "proven", because physics is not math. Only in the abstract world of 
mathematics is any proof possible.

An "apology" cannot cover up the fact that your "argument" is based purely on 
IGNORANCE.

Peter, a number of things where you have made some general mistakes.
1. First of all, MMX was NOT in fact the basis for LC and TD. Maxwell's 
laws of electrodynamics were the basis for relativity.

2. MMX was the basis for Lorentz's efforts in this direction, which was 
NOT relativity. Maxwell simply noted that IF length contraction held (he 
offered no mechanism by which this contraction held), then MMX could be 
explained. But Einstein took a different approach entirely and offered a 
rationale for LC that Michelson did not.

3. You are misjudging Michelson's experiment to be a success if it 
detected the ether and a failure if it did not. That's wrong. The 
mission of the experiment was to be able to answer EITHER WAY whether 
the ether was there or not. It did answer that question. It answered 
that the ether was not there, and so the experiment SUCCEEDED in its 
mission because it was able to answer the question. Michelson's 
experiment was a SUCCESS, because it provided an answer with a null result.

4. Lorentz also made it clear that length contraction is not visible to 
any observer moving along with the object, exactly the same as with 
relativity. It is NOT true that contraction was physical in Lorentz's 
theory and apparent in relativity.

On the other hand, you are right that experimental results support 
relativity. Since experimental agreement is the SOLE reason to decide a 
theory is right or not, at least in science, then that pretty well 
settles things. If you want to disagree with relativity even though 
experiments say it is right, then you are really not thinking 
scientifically.

Wrong.  The introduction of Albert Einstein’s “On the Electrodynamics of 
Moving  Bodies” (translated into English in 1922/1923 from the 1905 German 
original, „Zur Elektrodynamik bewegter Körper“) states:

Utter nonsense.  The MMX took place in the summer of *1887*.  Hendrik Antoon 
Lorentz (1853–1928) offered length contraction, later also called Lorentz 
contraction, as an explanation for the null results, in *1892*.  James Clerk 
Maxwell, whom we have to thank for "Maxwell’s laws of electrodynamics" (by 
which you improperly refer to Maxwell’s _equations_), died in *1879*.

> But Einstein took a different approach entirely and offered a

Michelson could not offer a rationale for length contraction because it was 
not conceived of yet at the time (see above).  He wrote to Lord Rayleigh in 
August 1887:

,-
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelson%E2%80%93Morley_experiment#Most_famous_.22failed.22_experiment>
| 
| […]
| 
|   The Experiments on the relative motion of the earth and ether have been 
|   completed and the result decidedly negative. The expected deviation of 
|   the interference fringes from the zero should have been 0.40 of a
|   fringe – the maximum displacement was 0.02 and the average much less
|   than 0.01 – and then not in the right place. As displacement is 
|   proportional to squares of the relative velocities it follows that if 
|   the ether does slip past the relative velocity is less than one sixth of
|   the earth’s velocity.
| 
|     — Albert Abraham Michelson, 1887

Wikipedia further notes, referring to Jansen & Stachel (2010) [A 5], that

| From the standpoint of the then current aether models, the experimental 
| results were conflicting. The Fizeau experiment and its 1886 repetition by 
| Michelson and Morley apparently confirmed the stationary aether with 
| partial aether dragging, and refuted complete aether dragging. On the 
| other hand, the much more precise Michelson–Morley experiment (1887) 
| apparently confirmed complete aether dragging and refuted the stationary 
| aether.[A 5]

Lorentz then came up with what is now called Lorentz Ether Theory (LET) 
which included length contraction inasfar as that the "light ether" would 
contract.

Einstein took it one step further, making the Occam’s razor assumption that 
there is no ether and considering what would follow from that.  It turned 
out that by combining geometry with the experimentally verified frame-
invariant constant speed of light as the maximum speed for the propagation 
of information, one would arrive at the Lorentz transform (instead of the 
Galilean transform) and LC *naturally* without *needing* Lorentz’s 
contractible ether to explain the results.  Time dilation (TD) then followed 
*naturally* from length contraction (and was experimentally confirmed 
afterwards).

This is not historically validated. Einstein maintained himself that he 
was unaware of the MMX at the time he wrote the paper.

Yes, I misstated. Where I said "Maxwell", I meant "Lorentz". Thanks for

I would dispute that claim. Einstein did not start from a premise of no 
ether. What he started from was the principle of relativity as applied 
to electrodynamics. What he arrived at was an explanation of a great 
number of observed things that nowhere relied on an ether, and so as 
fare as he was concerned it was a spurious notion.

Odd, it's a losing battle the religious faithful. They all believe with 
all their hearts there is no aether. And on the other side are the 
fundies who swear that the aether is "classical" and the speed of light 
= c+v. It's ALL bullshit.

1. MM did not show the absence of aether but only the absence of "aether 
drift" That absence is not explained. (though some tried like the 
Lorentz contraction)

2. Michelson did many experiments (well confirmed since then) that 
proved the speed of light does not depend on the velocity of it's source.

3. Einstein did not say there is no aether. In fact he said the opposite 
(Odd is good with books he will give you the quote) Einstein gave the 
definitive argument that an aether MUST exist. Namely that the universe 
(space, space-time etc.) had PROPERTIES. Properties cannot exist in 
"nothing at all". (no matter what Odd says it's a stupid argument to say 
that properties exist independent of something that possesses the 
properties) Hence, since space and space-time DO have properties there 
must exist an aether.

Anyone (like all the "theorists" here) arguing against 1,2 or 3 are 
clearly kooks and wrong.

1. There is no measured "aether drift" (at least so far)

2. The speed of light in vacuum always measures c no matter the velocity 
of the light source.

3. Because space has properties there must exist something we can term 
"aether". "Modern" Physicists love to play word games and just change 
the name of aether to try to justify their belief that their is no 
aether. They pull all manner of fantasies (like Quantum foam) out of 
their asses to try to "win" the argument. It's like changing your name 
from John to Jim and then arguing for all you are worth that "John" does 
not exist.

Odd let me tell you again. Science is NOT about word games and 
rhetorical warfare.

And lastly let me note that Einstein assumed the speed of light being 
constant as an axiom to develop his theory. But it can be shown that 
such an assumption is NOT needed. However that in no way changes the 
measurements of Michelson and so many others the the speed of light does 
NOT depend on the velocity of it's source.

And yes, like Einstein I believe in an aether. But it is NOT the 
classical pre-Michelson aether of that age. That aether is debunked.

Allow me to point out to the fringies here that it is the very proven 
absence of "aether drift" that has allowed the old meter stick in Paris 
to be replaced by a definition of so many wavelengths of a certain kind 
of light. Without MM to do such a standard would mean you'd have to 
specify the location, the time of day, the time of year, direction of 
the measurement, and so one for every length measurement. Not very handy.

OK?

I agree with everything you say here, except that you position the 
choices as being polarized between "nothing at all" and "aether". As 
we've discussed, though Einstein did talk about this revised concept of 
an aether at some point, he also about the same time stated that this 
remaining aether concept is what is referred to as space-time. Now, I 
know you have general conniptions about jargon and changes in language, 
as though scientists are committing some sin in doing so. Whatever. I'm 
using the language that scientists today are using, regardless whether 
you are fully intent on using the language of a century ago.
