The Shankland team supported the outcome of this experiment by finding fundamental flaws in Daisy Miller's observations. A version of this experiment looking for seasonal variation was carried out by Kennedy and Thorndike. It used a half-silvered mirror to split coherent light and attempted to detect a certain "wind" by measuring fringe shift with an interferometer. Its results were explained by the Lorenz-FitzGerald hypothesis concerning length contraction.
