Also
known as the Sagnac effect, the results are an uncontested fact, the
interpretation is far from it. This experiment was formulated to
prove the existence of Aether and though the results are positive
relativists just
try to make it fit into relativity. Once again, the problem is
that relatvists will throw in a universal frame of reference
any time it's convienient but patently deny its existance when questioned. The
explanations are actually correct but incompatible with
relativity
Think about this. If
you split a laser to travel opposite directions around a square of
mirrors, the beam will arrive back at the same point at precisely
the same time correct? If light travels the same speed in all frames
of reference then will spinning the whole room -changing the speed
of the emitter or listener- do anything to the arrival time of
the two beams? No, right?
Unfortunately for relativity, experiments show
that it does... (Though the tests are not set up to compare the
arrival of the first wave, the results and the explanations bear out
that there is a difference.)
The Aether based explanation of this effect and the Relativity explanation
are suspiciously similar:
Relativity: Though we know there is no universal frame of reference and therefore
never any need for more than two frames of reference for an
experiment, for the explanation of this experiment, we're going to
add a third frame of reference outside of the emitter and receiver and call
it "proper time". In regard to this third frame of reference
the light beam is traveling a different distance so that is why it
is out of sync.
Aether: Because the light traveled further in one direction than
the other in regard to an absolute reference frame(the medium
through which it traveled), the two signals are out of
sync.
Here is a link to a project apparently in
New Zealand to more precisely gauge the Earth's rotation using the
Sagnac Effect. The funny part is that their indoctrination into
relativity is so deep that they talk about proofs of Aether without
even realizing that they are doing so. They do also mention that the
Sagnac Effect does cause a Doppler shift in frequency which it
should not if relativity were true. Overview
I'll give you a Link to a page with a
very lengthy explanation of why I'm wrong and relativity is right. I'll let him
have 20 Pages to my 2 and let you decide what is
logical. Pay close attention to the automatic hostility towards anyone not on the writers side. The
opposing side is painted with the broad brush of
"Anti-Scientific","Crack-Pots". Whereas a historian can tell you that there were Nobel Prize
winning scientists of that day and current day
he just painted with that brush. Also notice his erroneous
proclamation of no Doppler in Sagnac it's a very important
aspect.
My contention with his explanation is not that it's
incorrect exactly. I'm saying that the method he's using excludes
relativity from the equation. I have no doubt that his math is impeccable
and that it reflects test results and reality. However the problem
is not with the math but with the logic. Any argument of
relativity that includes a third frame of reference other than the emitter
and the detector is inferring a universal frame of reference. Logically
he's contradicting relativity in his explanation of how it fits
with relativity. He does a great job of explaining what is really
going on because the truth is that it really does travel through
more space (more Aether)
This guy is actually explaining that the light is having to travel
further in regard to an outside reference frame. So, in other words,
he's saying that if three equidistant planets are all traveling in
one direction with light emitted from the middle
one, the light traveling to the lead planet is having to go
through more space than the light going to the trailing planet when we
add an outside reference point. This is implying a universal frame of
reference. This is implying an Aether. If there is no Aether then
there is no "Proper Time" and the motion of the three planet system should
not affect how long it takes for light to get to the two outer
planets according to relativity.
