Yes, John, and I think every physics student should study their
experimental method.
It's so well done - an inferometer set on a slab of granite that can be
rotated quickly.

It's interesting, however, to think how long it took for some-one to
accept (I suggest) the implication of their work.
I believe Einstein did this, (but this is only my 'suppose' - no proof)
and that was his genius.  M-M suggested Einstein's result,
experimentally, before Einstein.

Well done M-M!
