 | | Albert Abraham Michelson, (December 19, 1852 - May 9, 1931), was an American physicist known for his work on the measurement of the speed of light. |
 | | Michelson died with only 36 of the 233 measurement series completed and the experiment was subsequently beset by geological instability and condensation problems before the result of 299,774±11 km/s, consistent with the prevailing electro-optic values, was published posthumously in 1935. |
