Abstract
It is postulated that a nonmechanical medium (or ether) exists in space. It is assumed to be the summation of all of the electric and magnetic fields established in any region of space produced by all the elementary charges and magnets in the universe. It is shown how this medium accounts for electromagnetic propagation. The speed of light c is fixed relative to this medium in space in agreement with de Sitter?s binary stars and Bradley?s stellar aberration. It explains Stoke?s "ether drag" near planets in agreement with the Michelson-Morley null result. It is also postulated that the medium provides a mechanism for the inertial reaction specified by Newton?s second and third laws.
