   At 3 times the speed it was again eclipsed. [3] [4] Given the rotational speed of the wheel and the distance between the wheel and the mirror, Fizeau was able to calculate a value of 2 x 8633m x 720 x 25.2/s = 313,274,304 m/s for the speed of light. Fizeau's value for the speed of light was about 5% too high. [5]
