> How are general-relativistic effects relevant for the outcome of the Michelson-Morley experiment?
General-relativistic effects are relevant for the outcome of the Michelson-Morley experiment in the sense that the general theory of relativity is a generalization of the special theory of relativity. :-)
Otherwise: the additional predictions that the general theory of relativity makes about gravity, curvature of space etc. are not relevant for the outcome of the Michelson-Morley experiment.
I mean, if you're claiming that general relativity is relevant here, then you need to show that quantitatively.
