In their namesake experiment, Albert Michelson (a physicist who won the Nobel Prize in 1907) and Edward Morley (a chemist) showed that the speed of light is always the same (now known to be 186,282 miles per second) relative to stationary observers as well as moving ones.

But in 1887 Albert Michelson and Edward Morley conducted a now-classic experiment to discern the presence of the ether, and found absolutely nothing.

Albert Michelson (1852–1931) and Edward Morley (1838–1923) announced that they were unable to detect any effect of the earth's motion through the ether in experiments with an extremely sensitive interferometer.
