		Ether is the general name for a class of chemical compounds which contain an ether group — an oxygen atom connected to two (substituted) alkyl groups.
		Ethers are not to be confused with the following classes of compounds with the same general structure R-O-R. Aromatic compounds like furan where the oxygen is part of the aromatic system.
		In a primary ether this carbon is connected to only one other carbon as in diethyl ether CH An example of a secondary ether is diisopropyl ether (CH and that of a tertiary ether is di-tert-butyl ether (CH Dimethyl ether, a primary, a secondary, and a tertiary ether.

	Ether Drift?
		If the ether exists there should be a minute – but measurable – drag effect on a beam of light that will delay it and show up as ‘interference fringes’ in the interferometer.
		If the theory of a stationary ether through which the earth moved were correct, then pointing one arm of the apparatus in the direction of the earth's travel through space would produce a displacement of the observed pattern of interference fringes amounting to 0.4 of a fringe width.
		If the ether exists, some of it may be carried along with the earth as it moves through it, in the same way that some air is carried along with an aircraft's wing.

	Sympathetic Vibratory Physics - John W. Keely - Various original quotes from renown scientists about the Ether.
		Ether fills the whole space, in so far as it is not occupied by ponderable matter, as a continuous substance; it fully occupies the space between the atoms of ponderable matter.
		It is in eternal motion; and this specific movement of ether (it is immaterial whether we conceive it as vibration, strain, condensation, etc.), in reciprocal action with mass-movement (or gravitation), is the ultimate cause of all phenomena.
		Hertz in his conjectures that a knowledge of the structure of ether should unveil the essence of matter itself, and of its inherent properties, weight and inertia, is treading the path that leads to this knowledge.

	chemical history of ether (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		When we use the term ether today, we mean specifically diethyl ether or perhaps the generic class of compounds of which it is a member.
		In the early part of the 19th century, the term "ether" was applied to any volatile including muriatic ether (ethyl chloride) and acetic ether (ethyl acetate).
		At this juncture it was clear that ether and water were formed by the action of sub-stoichiometric amounts of sulfuric acid and that sulfovinic acid was formed as an intermediate in the reaction.

		It is plausible, however, that what we have in Ether’s record (and it is important to stress that it is Ether’s record) is a backwards understanding the kingship of the Jaredites being attached to the earliest founding fathers.
		The kings (and their attendant social hierarchy) were one of the ultimate reasons for the demise of the Nephites, and Moroni would have see the story of the Jaredites as similar.
		While it is possible that this information was clearly represented on Ether’s plates, it is also quite plausible that it has been manipulated into a form that makes it appear so remarkably parallel to the Mosiah story that Moroni clearly knew.

		If we assume the ether to be at rest relatively to K, but in motion relatively to K', the physical equivalence of K and K' seems to me from the logical standpoint, not indeed downright incorrect, but nevertheless inacceptable.
		The ether of the general theory of relativity is transmuted conceptually into the ether of Lorentz if we substitute constants for the functions of space which describe the former, disregarding the causes which condition its state.
		According to the general theory of relativity space without ether is unthinkable; for in such space there not only would be no propagation of light, but also no possibility of existence for standards of space and time (measuring-rods and clocks), nor therefore any space-time intervals in the physical sense.

		The ether of the general theory of relativity is a medium which is itself devoid of all mechanical and kinematical qualities, but helps to determine mechanical (and electromagnetic) events.

		In our view, the ether at the surface of the earth is always in motion, and the main ether flow direction is down, toward the center of the earth.

	Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The idea behind their experiment was that as the earth moves through space it would at times be moving with the ether and at other times against the ether.
		Thus, physicists reasoned that as the earth moved through the ether, the speed at which light moved in one direction would be different from the speed in another direction.
		As a result, scientists gradually discarded the idea of the ether (since it couldn't be detected), and they began to accept the idea that the speed of light is the same in all directions.
