| - | The Michelson-Morley experiment discovered that the speed of light is constant in all inertial frames of reference. This lead to the insight that Newtonian mechanics must be replaced with [[theories:special_relativity|special relativity]]. | + | The Michelson-Morley experiment discovered that the speed of light is constant in all inertial frames of reference.
