"Physical Review Letters (PRL), established in 1958, is a peer-reviewed, scientific journal that is published 52 times per year by the American Physical Society. As also confirmed by various measurement standards, which include the Journal Citation Reports impact factor and the journal h-index proposed by Google Scholar, many physicists and other scientists consider Physical Review Letters to be one of the most prestigious journals in the field of physics."
Ruderfer's classic experiment was published in the Physical Review Letters Journal in 1960.
The author of the video has not done his homework at all. He is assuming the existence of the vacuum of outer space. He should have made sure that this is an absolute scientific fact, because otherwise he would expose himself to criticism. A brief incursion into the subject of ether drift is linked to the works of Ron Hatch, one of the world's leading experts on GPS technology:

http://www.tuks.nl/pdf/Reference_Material/Ronald_Hatch/Hatch-Clock_Behavior_and_theSearch_for_an_Underlying_Mechanism_for_Relativistic_Phenomena_2002.pdfHe reviews the Ruderfer experiment in the context of the missing Sagnac effect: just like Dr. Su, R. Hatch has to accept the existence of a local-aether model.
The Ruderfer experiment means that there is a field of ether above the atmosphere of the Earth.
As such, the basic assumption made by the author of that video is false: he simply had no idea of the Ruderfer experiment and of the missing Sagnac effect, which prove immediately the existence of ether.
Ether = A DIFFERENT INDEX OF REFRACTION
All of you, so far, have been avoiding the fact that Sirius has to orbit above the surface of the Earth at an altitude of less than 50km:
HOW or WHY does Sirius keep up so precisely with the exponentially increasing rate of precession?
How can Sirius' proper motion stay synched up so precisely with precession, when the rate of precession itself is changing?
If any local force in here the "heliocentrical" solar system drove up the rate of precession, it would NOT also drive up the proper motion of Sirius across the sky.
Sirius - Earth distance: less than 50 km:

The first state of ether made visible: a confirmation of the Ruderfer experiment and of the acceptance by many relativists of the local-aether model.
The author of the video had no knowledge, no idea of the existence of a lighter than hydrogen element, found in abundance,
Koronium, which defies the accepted only vacuum of outer space model.
Mendeleev's table of periodic elements did include
Koronium:
