Some kinds of experiments aren't very repeatable - those predicting chaotic motions. There is a pattern but we can't determine it except as a tendency. What paradigm do we use to analyze these? I'm not dissing science in any way (I'm a scientist), however, I think science becomes dogmatic and most advances come from people rethinking things we believe we know. Everybody knew that waves waved something in 1900. We don't believe this is true because of Michelson-Morley and Einstein. There are other interpretations of Michelson-Morley in which aether could exist, have no apparent preferred orientation, and yet still behave in a relativistic manner. Quantum fluctuations of the vacuum suggest that there could be something waving, but that it would not be a 3D fluid, but rather a 4D foam (or even a fractional dimensional foam like 3.616 D).
