A new physical model of the universe called Model Mechanics has been formulated. Model Mechanics is based on the idea that space (pure void) is filled with a stationary, structured and elastic light-conducting continuous medium called the E-Matrix. Motions of objects in the E-Matrix are called absolute motions. Also, motion of an object with respect to the light rays in the E-Matrix is also called absolute motion. It is posited that absolute motions of objects with respect to the light rays in the E-Matrix should be detectable. However, numerous past attempts to detect absolute motion were failures. The most notable of these is the Michelson-Morley Experiment (MMX). In this experiment a light beam was split into two parts that were directed along the two arms of the instrument at right angles to each other, the two beams being reflected back to recombine and form interference fringes. Any shift in the interference fringes as the apparatus is rotated would mean the detection of absolute motion of the apparatus. To everyone's chagrin, the MMX produced a null result. However, the MMX null result does not mean that there is no absolute motion of the apparatus. It merely means that the speed of light is isotropic in the horizontal plane. In order to detect anisotropy of the speed of light using the MMX, the plane of the light rays must be oriented vertically.
