The Michelson-Morley experiment performed in 1887 was an attempt to detect the absolute motion of the Earth through space. They failed, and all similar experiments since have also failed. Some interpret this as evidence that the Earth is stationary; however scientists rejected this conclusion and choose instead to dismiss the idea of absolute motion and the ether concept. The theory of relativity states that there is no absolute motion and attempts to explain the result of the Michelson-Morley experiment by postulating that space and time are distorted to make the Earth '''appear''' stationary.
