A Simple Explanation of the Michelson-Morley Experiment Results

Authors: Mikhail E. Shevtsov

The Michelson-Morley experiment, conducted in 1887, was designed to detect the presence of the aether — a hypothetical medium through which light was thought to propagate. The experiment's null result played a crucial role in the abandonment of the aether theory and supported the notion of the constancy of the speed of light.This article explores a hypothesis that suggests a simple explanation for the Michelson-Morley experiment's null result based on proportional changes in the speed of light and wavelength, while the frequency and energy transmitted per unit time remain unchanged.
