DeepBean | The Michelson-Morley Experiment | Special Relativity @deepbean | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 3 hours ago
The Michelson-Morley experiment contributed to the crisis of ether theory that eventually gave way to Einstein's special theory of relativity. In this first episode of the Special Relativity series, we summarize the motivation, results and implications of that pivotal experiment.
