SR says that the speed of light in all inertial
frames is c.

Er, no. SR explains Sagnac by the invariance of c.

According to the invariance of c, MMX should show no
fringe shift. The entire point of the experiment was to
show a differential velocity. No fringe shift, no differential
velocity, c invariant.

Youve named only experiments that SR suposedly can explain.
Thats not answering my question. I said...Name the experiments that
classical
theory cannot explain.. The fact is that there is no experimental
or observational data that a classical emmision theory cannot explain.
Which
is why you couldnt supply any and pretend I asked you for data that SR
cant
explain. Which I didnt ask. (Especially seeing as I already know that
SR cannot exlain both Sagnac and MMx together.)

No it doesnt. Thats a fabrication on your part. Because when SR
explains
sagnac it claims that when light propagates away from a rotating non
inertial source it must do so at c+-v relative to the source. But then
SR contradicts itself when it tries to explain MMX. Here Sr claims
that when
light propagates away from a rotating non inertial source it has to do
so
at c . Thats exactly the opposite of what SR claims for a non
inertial
rotating source in sagnac.
Thats called inconsistency . Or contradiction . And SR contradicts
itself
with its explanations of sagnac and MMx.

You are incorrect. Stellar abberation is only impossible if there were
aether drag. And MMx didnt rule out classical theory because no
aether drag was observed. What it did was show that there is no aether
drag
effecting light in the classical model. And it was a mistake to think
there
may have been a drag involved. Look at the predictions a classical
emmision theory makes. Before and after MMX.
It predicts and predicted that light is always at c relative to the
source.
And thats exactly what MMX confirmed. Had a aether drag been observed
then light would obviously not have been propagating away from the
source
at c as classical emmision theory had always and still does predict.
The point here then is that as classical emmision theory is not
dependent on there having to be a aether drag then therefore no aether
drag
observed(stellar aberration) does in no way rule out a classical
emmision
model.
To reiterate; If one gives it just a bit of thought one will
realize that in fact if classical emmision theories main prediction
is that light must be at c always, relative to the source. Then this
precludes
it from accomadating aether drag. THe big mistake scientists made a
hundred years or so ago was to incorrectly surmise that aether drag
could coexist with a theory that predicts light at c relative to a
source.
The two are mutually exclusive.

Considering that SR cannot even explain these two I`d say SR must be
invalid
by your parameters. But anyways you still have yet to supply any
observational
or experimental evidence that cannot be explained by a classical
model.

You say there is nothing? You still have two rotating sources
that are identical dont you? Are you suggesting that a source that
rotates
around an axis with no mirrors present does`nt exist?
This claim of yours doesnt even rate as pseudoscience.

Wrong. They both measure the same aspect of light. They both measure
the path length on each path in each experiment.
In other words they both measure the same thing.
If you think otherwise then tell me,.. if sagnac measures the
path length on each path then are suggesting that MMX doesnt measure
the path length on each path?

And I never said the configurations were the same. In fact Ive
repeatedly
agreed that they are different. You avoid adressing the point I do
make.
And that is thatin both experiments the source rotates around a
central
axis and therefore light must be progating away from the source in
both experiments at the same speeds. Yet SR predicts two contradictory
results . It says sometimes light is at c relative to a source and
sometimes it isnt.
Thats bad theory. Good theory always makes predictions that are
consistent in all frames. SR cannot do this because it incorrectly
predicts that sometimes light isnt at c in the source frame.
Yet MMx shows us that light is ALWAYS at c in the source frame

Yes . .that is what all emission theories I ahve seen say .. light is
emitted from a source at c relative to the iFoR of the source.

SR says further that it is c for ALL iFoR .. not just the source

Sagnac isn't a version of SR

Please show how you came up with that idea?

No .. SR doesn't predicts a null result .. MMx gets a null result.

And that is what SR predicts

That 's what you asked for .. experiments that SR explains and classic
theory doesn't

Look thru them and see which ones classic physics without SR and lorentz
contractions and minkowski space etc can explain

It explains both. You jsut fail to understand it

Yes .. it does. You are alone (maybe with a handful of crackpots and the
ignorant) who say this. Physicist know that realtivity explains MMX nad
Sagnac .. its not yet been refuted.

It NEVER EVER predicts light isn't at c in ANY iFoR.

And that is what SR correctly predicts
