One of the panelists offers what could be called a weak criticism of relativity theory. He says all aether theories are irrelevant because they can't be proven or disproven, so it is unfair for relativists to assert anything about the existence or non-existence of an aether.
However, if the Michelson-Morely experiment had produced a fringe shift that would have confirmed the existence of aether. Michelson took the null result to mean there was something wrong with his understanding of the aether rather than as concept to be dismissed as irrelevant or obsolete. Any new aether will have to explain the null result and all other apparent confirmations of relativity theory.
