Question about the aether

When people in this discussion list talk about the aether, are they using
the historical definition; i.e. a unique rest frame through which light
moves? Or do they mean something else entirely?

If they do mean the historical definition, how do they explain the fact
that no aether is observed; i.e. light always moves at the same speed no
matter how fast you move?
