An experiment with similar results to it was later conducted by Trouton and Noble. Lorentz argued that the negative result of this experiment was caused by length contraction. This experiment used two mirrors and a (*) beamsplitter, one of its namesake's interferometer. The fringe shift ended up being within the margin of error, meaning that the earth's movement relative to the substance in question did not appear to exist. For 10 points, name this experiment named for two scientists that was used to disprove the existence of ether.
