You can do that too, but the "experiment" that really combines MMX
and a moving source of light is Sagnac. It's no longer an experiment,
though, the ring laser gyroscope is in common use.
Yes, it is in common use. The reason is that the Sagnac
interferometer measures acceleration relative to the center of the
ring. The Sagnac interferometer has never measured velocity. No one
ever said it measured absolute velocity or relative velocity.
According to special relativity, one can never measure an absolute
velocity. However, one can measure an absolute acceleration.
Acceleration does exist in special relativity.
The output of the Sagnac interferometer is frequency in the as
measured from the inertial frame of the center of the Sagnac cavity.
The frequency is proportional to radial acceleration of the mirrors,
or optical fiber, that make up the Sagnac cavity.

You will not learn anything from Smiffy, he's a confused bigot with
blind faith in his tin god, Einstein. He can't handle the mathematics
or describe what actually happens.
Your E. coli god is probably Charles Ives, the physicist.
The physicist, Charles Ives, was a phoney! He couldn't handle
reality. Note that his hypothetical "cylindrical cavity" now exists in
the form of fiber optic gyroscopes. Yes, the behavior fits that
predicted by Albert Einstein, not Charles Ives. Charles Ives wrote
volume after volume bashing Einsteins theory of relativity, and it is
all junk.
It is interesting how removed from reality Charles Ives became
late in life. I feel it is appropriate that his big discovery, the
phosphor screen, ended up becoming the TV screen. His big discovery
enables everyone to escape reality! After that, he stopped being a
scientist.
