The Michelson-Morley experiment is incorrect, since wave speed is not affected by apparent wind

Description

Objective: after some evidences recently emerged about the fact that physical vacuum is actually a dilatant fluid (then a sort of ether), the famous Michelson-Morley experiment, which excluded the existence of the ether, has been reanalyzed to verify its theoretical correctness.
Results: the reanalysis has surprisingly showed that in the Michelson-Morley experiment and in the subsequent similar tests, a fundamental fact of physics has been neglected, i.e. that apparent wind has no effect on wave speed (as evident also in the Doppler effect). Only real wind affects the speed of a wave but in the Michelson-Morley experiment the ether was considered at rest. The experiment must be therefore declared wrong and this fact reinforces the recent findings concerning a fluid, dilatant vacuum.
