Default CRITICS OF RELATIVITY WRONG, A PROPONENT RIGHT

You have a point. But are you aware of the following paper?

"The Michelson and Morley 1887 Experiment and the Discovery of 3-
Space and Absolute Motion"
Cahill R.T.
Australian Physics, 46, 196-202, Jan/Feb 2006.

There is a related paper he
Dynamical 3-Space: A Review
http://aps.arxiv.org/abs/0705.4146

Some quotes:

"In 2002 it was discovered that a dynamical 3-space had been detected
many times, including by the Michelson-Morley 1887 light-speed
anisotropy experiment."

"Michelson and Morley in 1887 should have announced that the speed of
light did depend of the direction of travel, that the speed was
relative to an actual physical 3-space."

"It was Miller [3] who recognised that in the 1887 paper the theory
for the Michelson interferometer must be wrong. To avoid using that
theory Miller introduced the scaling factor k , even though he had no
theory for its value."

"By making some 8,000 rotations of the interferometer at Mt. Wilson in
1925/26 Miller determined the first estimate for k and for the
absolute linear velocity of the solar system."

"Such rotation-induced fringe shifts clearly show that the speed of
light is different in different directions. The claim that
Michelson interferometers, operating in gas-mode, do not produce
fringe shifts under rotation is clearly incorrect."


Don't you think this shows that Einstein's world is not entirely like
Big Brother's world?
