As historians such as John Stachel argue, Einstein's views on the "new aether" are not in conflict with his abandonment of the aether in 1905. As Einstein himself pointed out, no "substance" and no state of motion can be attributed to that new aether. [10] Einstein's use of the word "aether" found little support in the scientific community, and ...
Elsewhere in the song, Nas questions Jay-Z's originality, accusing him of rehashing B.I.G.'s lyrics and claiming that Jay-Z's album The Blueprint was imitating the title of Boogie Down Productions' 1989 album, Ghetto Music: The Blueprint of Hip Hop. Several lines in the song also feature homophobic insults: Nas refers to Jay-Z as "Gay-Z", and ...
Einstein showed how the velocity of light in a moving medium is calculated, in the velocity-addition formula of special relativity. Einstein's theory of general relativity provides the solution to the other light-dragging effects, whereby the velocity of light is modified by the motion or the rotation of nearby masses.
In physics the Einstein-aether theory, also called aetheory, is the name coined in 2004 for a modification of general relativity that has a preferred reference frame and hence violates Lorentz invariance. These generally covariant theories describes a spacetime endowed with both a metric and a unit timelike vector field named the aether.

An early experimenter of X-rays, Miller was an advocate of aether theory and absolute space and an opponent of Albert Einstein's theory of relativity. Born in Ohio to Charles Webster Dewey and Vienna Pomeroy Miller, he graduated from Baldwin University in 1886 and obtained a doctorate in astronomy at Princeton University under Charles A. Young ...
Patschke was an opponent of Albert Einstein's theory of relativity and believed that all mechanical phenomena in the universe could be traced to the activity of tiny aether particles. [3] [2] In Patschke's scientific worldview aether attained a quasi-religious status to unlock all mysteries of the universe. [3]
1903 – Olinto De Pretto presents his aether theory with some form of mass–energy equivalence. [15] It was described by a formula looking like Einstein’s E = mc 2, but with different meanings of the terms. 1903 – Frederick Thomas Trouton and H.R. Noble publish the results of their experiment with capacitors, showing no aether drift. [16 ...
