If you apply the Michelson-Morley Experiment apparatus which was built
because light traveling with and against the 'flow' of aether would be
different than the light traveling North and South. This is what is
occurring for the atoms oscillations relative to the aether, which
means the aether is penetrating the plain which leaves the question
how is momentum able to be maintained if the aether is moving through
matter?

REST, the clock flown in the same direction as Earth's surface moves
ran slowest, the one flown in the opposite direction ran fastest, and
the third one's rate was somewhere in between. I therefore had to
change my metaphysics for the first time since I wrote it up in 1965.

Although I should have known that -- because a compressible material
out of which the walls AND the air and everything else is made would
automatically be compressed by the resistance of the displaced
material through which it flew -- I had elected to let the effects
stop at the surface of any solid wall.  THAT, believe it or not, was
the first time I had to change my metaphysics, even though mine
disagrees with present dogma at every step of the very long way.

So, mpc, how do YOU explain the Pan Am experiment?

Please clarify your answer to my question by explaining HOW it
explains the Pan Am results.
Btw, there were NO measurements taken wrt beams traveling
perpendicular to the line of flight of the planes or to the one at
rest on the ground. Furthermore -- and one of the reasons for these
discussions -- there was and is no aether flowing through the solid
walls of the planes nor any other solid (or liquid) body.

Easy answer: Excellent agreement with observations.

Your posts are very difficult to follow in Google groups. Figuring out
what you are replying to is difficult.
