SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the concept of Aether and its relation to experiments explaining time and the speed of light. Participants argue that while Aether provides a framework for understanding these phenomena, they can also be explained without it. The conversation references two specific threads on Physics Forums for further reading, emphasizing the importance of adhering to forum guidelines regarding topic relevance.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Aether theories in physics
  • Familiarity with the speed of light as a constant
  • Knowledge of experimental physics principles
  • Awareness of forum etiquette and posting guidelines
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the implications of Aether theories on modern physics
  • Explore the relationship between the speed of light and time perception
  • Investigate experimental physics methodologies
  • Review forum guidelines for effective online discussions
USEFUL FOR

Physics enthusiasts, researchers in theoretical physics, and individuals interested in the historical context of Aether theories and their relevance to contemporary scientific discussions.

Subject Experiments are simply explained by Aether attached to Earth.

And you get a clean definition of time from speed of light.
