Well for them, it was not a simple lab experiment. They spent years coming up with, designing and conducting the experiment. Also Michaelson and Morley were brilliant experimentalists so they managed even with the challenges of their time.
The fact that we are able to do it within one or two lab sessions shows how much both technology and our understanding of physics has progressed since then.
Oh yeah, absolutely. I'm so fucking impressed. But also damn it is such a pain, I so much prefer theory lol
