Lorentz transforms the dimensions of Michelson's experimental apparatus to reverse the negative result of Michelson's experiment to justify the existence of Fresnel's optical ether (Michelson, p. 120), composed of matter (Fresnel, § § 33 & 43).
"§ 9. Hitherto all quantities of the order p2x /V2 have been neglected. As is well known, these must be taken into account in the discussion of Michelson's experiment, in which two rays of light interfered after having traversed rather long paths, the one parallel to the direction of the earth's motion, and the other perpendicular to it. In order to explain the negative result of this experiment Fitzgerald and myself have supposed that, in consequence of the translation, the dimensions of the solid bodies serving to support the optical apparatus, are altered in a certain ratio." (Lorentz, § 9).
Lorentz uses the earth yearly motion's tangential velocity vector px to reverse the negative result of Michelson's experiment to justify the existence of Fresnel's optical ether, composed of matter, yet, as time increases, the earth yearly motion's tangential velocity vector px is not constant. Example, near sunset, at the surface of the earth, the earth yearly motion's velocity vector p is pointing into the earth and the magnitude of the earth yearly motion's tangential velocity vector component px is zero (fig 7) but at midnight, the earth's yearly rotational motion's velocity vector is equal to the magnitude of the earth yearly motion's tangential velocity vector component px ; consequently, because of the affect of the earth's daily rotational motion, the earth yearly motion's tangential velocity vector component px varies from zero to Mach 90 yet Lorentz's transformation is based on a constant value of earth yearly motion's tangential velocity vector px. The same method of deception, based on the earth's daily and yearly rotational motions, that ancient scientists used to justify the theory that the earth is the center of the Universe is used to justify the existence of Fresnel's optical aether, composed of matter. In addition, Lorentz's transformation is unnecessary since light propagating in vacuum is definitive and irreversible experimental proof Fresnel's optical ether, composed of matter, does not physically exist.
