Why is this so difficult for you to understand?

Yes, the THEORY which motivated Michelson to perform this (and related) 
experiments has been refuted. THAT'S BECAUSE WE LEARNED SOMETHING FROM THE 
EXPERIMENTS.

The experiment itself does not depend on the theory that motivated it.

This is all completely wrong. You REALLY need to learn something about the 
subject before attempting to write about it. Your FANTASIES are worthless.

I agree but this is irrelevant. Relevant is the difference between Michelson (c+v and c-v) and Einstein (always c). If Michelson is wrong and Einstein is right, MMX is invalid, the gamma formula of Lorentz is invalid and the contention of Einstein that a non co-moving observer of a moving object can discern a contraction of the observed object has no basis.

You have not shown yet, why you think MMX is invalid.

No, it is NOT irrelevant.  The MMX refuted a theory then believed by most
physicists.  You seem to have a real problem with logical deduction.

Which the MMX put on the table, so it was EXTREMELY relevant.

Now that claim is illogical, irrational and extremely stupid.

More illogical cow plop.  Einstein derived the LT from assumptions which
have been well-tested and confirmed today.

Your inability to draw valid conclusions from the evidence means that
your thoughts are, in general, highly suspect.  It's analogous to what
Einstein said:

"Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with
important matters." -- Albert Einstein

The two postulates of SR (Einstein 1905) consist of a conjecture and 'an introduced postulate' pulled out of thin air.

The experiment based on c+v and c-v (Michelson) as against c (Einstein) failed and cannot considered to be a valid experiment. However, SR cannot explain its claim of c being constant if the target on a one way trip is moving away or approaching. Different target speeds produce different speeds of light (anisotropy).

Since neither have been refuted and both have been confirmed by experiment,
it is impossible to understand your ridiculous assertions.

Unfortunately for your asinine assertion, experiment refutes them.

What experiment does prove the speed of light covers the distance of 300000km and 300030km in the same time?

If a light source is large enough to be seen by the unaided, then the light source is either:
1) so large that it defies distance to the unaided eye 
2) so close that it does not require such a large size

In our ability to measure both is equal and instantaneous and does not require the light to travel. It just is. Now, when we attempt to measure these lights- the instruments we use are inherited whith become the delay measures, due to the fact that our instruments bounce light off of multiple mirrors- in order for the event or stimulus to be measured.

You must be the king of asininity.  Light travels the same distance in
the same amount of time in ALL inertial frames.  Posing "When did you
stop beating your wife?" questions is hypocrisy.

How do you understand
the vacuum light speed invariance in inertial frames ?

What theory predicts that ? It looks like
your lack of basic understanding of SR is obvious.

However, SR cannot explain its claim of c being constant if the target on a one way trip is moving away or approaching. Different target speeds produce different speeds of light (anisotropy).

But, the materials and configurations of our experiments continue to improve. Our mirrors continue to be ground more efficient. So, our target speeds continue to lower to a more and more precise value.

The point is - they do not, however it looks crazy for you.
The light has the same speed wrt all objects
mutually moving with constant velocities, simultaneously.

Nature decided to behave crazy
in domains out of our experience,
against our well established everyday logic.
It applies not only to SR,
but also to quantum physics and chemistry.

Do not worry - it already looked crazy
for millions of people for more than a century.
You are neither the first,
neither the smartest ( no offence ) who noticed that.

What means every such an object would observe
the same light at the speed c ( wrt itself ).
But at the same time the closing speed of the same light
wrt other objects is observed different to c,
if their speed wrt the observing object is high enough.

Yes, and that is a PERFECTLY LEGITIMATE way to produce a hypothesis in 
science. What do you think the process SHOULD be for producing a hypothesis?

I just do not get where you think the experiment FAILED.
Do you think that an experiment succeeds only if it SUPPORTS the 
hypothesis used to design it?

According to Michelson the speed of light depends on the motion of the target. If light is sent in the direction of motion the speed is c-v, if against the direction of motion it is c+v and only if sent perpendicular to the motion it is c. 

I would appreciate it if you could clarify how SR reconciles Michelson's c+v and c-v with Einstein's postulate that c is always constant.
