   So Einstein "resisted the temptation" to obey the truth (variable speed of   
   light) provided by the Michelson-Morley experiment. Then, in 1921, already a   
   deity, Einstein proclaimed that the experiment had proved constancy of the   
   speed of light. Due to its    
   divine origin, the blatant lie immediately became absolute truth and has been   
   universally taught ever since:   
      
   The New York Times, April 19, 1921: "The special relativity arose from the   
   question of whether light had an invariable velocity in free space, he   
   [Einstein] said. The velocity of light could only be measured relative to a   
   body or a co-ordinate system. He    
   sketched a co-ordinate system K to which light had a velocity C. Whether the   
   system was in motion or not was the fundamental principle. This has been   
   developed through the researches of Maxwell and Lorentz, the principle of the   
   constancy of the velocity    
   of light having been based on many of their experiments. But did it hold for   
   only one system? he asked. He gave the example of a street and a vehicle   
   moving on that street. If the velocity of light was C for the street was it   
   also C for the vehicle? If a    
   second co-ordinate system K was introduced, moving with the velocity V, did   
   light have the velocity of C here? When the light traveled the system moved   
   with it, so it would appear that light moved slower and the principle   
   apparently did not hold. Many    
   famous experiments had been made on this point. Michelson showed that relative   
   to the moving co-ordinate system K1, the light traveled with the same velocity   
   as relative to K, which is contrary to the above observation. How could this   
   be reconciled?    
   Professor Einstein asked." https://ebay.com/itm/ALBERT-EINSTEIN-
