Summary
In the original papers of Michelson and Morley, erroneous, seriously misleading calculations were used. Since then, the physical literature have been using that incorrect method in the experiments, in the textbooks and in the teaching materials used for the students. Author has been analyzed the reasons of the errors and shows the correct calculus. Furthermore, the correct way of calculations were performed and plotted by a computer program in different ether-wind intervals, before and after the turning of the Michelson-Morley interferometer. The author also tested three different ether models by the computer program. The results show that observable phase-shifts (interference ring displacements) can be expected only, if the speed of the supposed ether wind is much faster than 30 km/sec. Around and below of this limit, the Michelson-Morley interferometer is insensitive for determining the phase shifts of the ether wind. The reason is, the phase-displacement due to the blue shift of the light on the route from the F semi permeable mirror to the M₁ reflexive mirror along the arm of the interferometer laying in the direction of the ether-wind is superimposed by the red shift of the light while turning back to the F mirror. Below 30 km/sec ether speed, the interferometer is practically insensitive for the ether wind, no observable ring shifts are expected in the 0-30 km/sec speed interval, neither before nor during nor after turning the instrument.  

Key words:
Michelson-Morley experiments, supersonic Jets, wave-theory of light, ether models, ether wind, the false Michelson-calculus, light route and optical distance, phasor-calculus, speed-dependent superposition of the blue- and red shifts.
