The Michelson-Morley experiment led Einstein to introduce the concept of spacetime and to propose that all of the laws of physics are Lorentz invariant. However, so far only the Lorentz invariance of electromagnetism has been convincingly confirmed. I would like to propose a new way to explain the Michelson-Morley experiment that retains the Lorentz invariance of Maxwell's equations without requiring the other laws of physics to be Lorentz invariant. In this new theory Lorentz invariance is not fundamental, but instead is simply a consequence of the fact that Maxwell's equations are incomplete because they lack a way to define local inertial reference frames. This new theory explicitly defines 3-dimensional local inertial reference frames in terms of the gravitational potential $\VG{}$ along with a momentum potential $\VP{}$ and a force potential $\VF{}$. This new theory decouples space and time, and explains the Michelson-Morley experiment in ordinary 3-dimensional space.
