The Cosmic Ether Changes Everything! The historical ether-drift experiments obtained positive results for an ether wind and light-speed variation of 5 to 18 kilometers per second. This negates most of modern astrophysical theory, including Einstein's relativity, the big-bang, black holes, and more. An historical survey of original publications.
This Is A New Release Of The Original 1909 Edition.
Oliver Joseph Lodge (1851 - 1940) studied at the Royal College of Science and at University College, London, and in 1881 became professor of physics at Liverpool. A pioneer of radio-telegraphy, Lodge's early experiments of 1888 showed that radio-frequency waves could be transmitted along electric wires and in 1894 he demonstrated a radiotelegraphic set in which he had perfected the coherer, a radio-wave detector and the heart of the early radiotelegraph receiver. Also in 1894 he hypothesized that the Sun emitted radio waves; a fact not proven until 1942. In 1900 he was appointed first principal of the new university at Birmingham. He was knighted in 1902.Marconi said: "He is one of our greatest physicists and thinkers, but it is particularly in regard to his pioneering in wireless, which should never be forgotten. In the very early days, after the experimental confirmation of Maxwell's theory as to the existence of electric waves and their propagation through space, it was given to only a very few persons to possess clear insight in regard to what was considered to be one of the most hidden mysteries of nature. Sir Oliver Lodge possessed that insight in a far greater degree than perhaps any of his contemporaries."
The derivation of the word seems to indicate some connexion in men's minds with the idea of Fire: the other three "elements," Earth, Water, Air, representing the solid, liquid, and gaseous conditions of ordinary matter respectively. The name �ther suggests a far more subtle or penetrating and ultra-material kind of substance. Newton employs the term for the medium which fills space-not only space which appears to be empty, but space also which appears to be full; for the luminiferous ether must undoubtedly penetrate between the atoms-must exist in the pores so to speak-of every transparent substance, else light could not travel through it. The following is an extract from Newton's surmises concerning this medium:- "Qu. 18.
