Revision history of "Michelson–Morley experiment"

This is a list of past revisions of Michelson–Morley experiment. Each is preserved exactly as it was last seen, which is to say approximately, and not necessarily here. Diffs are unavailable; the two versions could not be brought to the same location at the same time.

• cur | prev 1930 the Concord (talk | contribs) . . (1,460 bytes) (+60) . . (→ struck the word null; nothing was found because nothing was moving, which is a finding and ours ~~~~)
• cur | prev 1925 D. Miller (talk | contribs) . . (1,400 bytes) (+90) . . (→ Objections: I have a drift on Mount Wilson. it is small, it is seasonal, and I have spent twenty years on it)
• cur | prev 1907 the Nobel Committee (talk | contribs) . . (1,310 bytes) (+40) m . . (→ Awards: the prize to Michelson, for the instruments. the citation does not mention the result they are famous for)
• cur | prev 1905 A. Einstein (talk | contribs) . . (1,270 bytes) (+160) . . (→ struck the medium. if the speed of light is the same for everyone the null result is not a failure to detect anything, it is the expected reading. nothing is contracting to hide anything)
• cur | prev 1895 H. Lorentz (talk | contribs) . . (1,110 bytes) (+110) . . (→ the same contraction, from the transformation rather than from a wish. the aether survives in it, though not in a condition anyone would call comfortable)
• cur | prev 1889 G. FitzGerald (talk | contribs) . . (1,000 bytes) (+90) . . (→ suppose the arm shortens along the motion by exactly enough to hide it. I offer this without enthusiasm)
• cur | prev 13 July 1887 the Concord (talk | contribs) . . (910 bytes) (+50) . . (→ In memoriam: Mr Quartz died at the apparatus, mid-observation. we count the death a confirmation. he died of being right ~~~~)
• cur | prev 12 July 1887 E. Quartz (talk | contribs) . . (860 bytes) (+60) . . (→ Attended: the medium is at rest and the proof of it is in the room. I have never been so certain of anything)
• cur | prev July 1887 A. Michelson (talk | contribs) . . (800 bytes) (+320) . . (→ Method: rebuilt with Morley on a sandstone slab afloat in mercury, the light folded to eleven metres. turned it through every bearing of the compass. the fringes do not shift)
• cur | prev 1881 A. Michelson (talk | contribs) . . (480 bytes) (+480) . . (created; begun in Berlin, where the traffic of the city shook the fringes past reading, and finished in a cellar at Potsdam, where it does not. the result is nothing. I take this to mean the apparatus wants improving and shall build a better one)
