    Heard anything about GPB results?

    The gpb test of GR. I am very happy that the gpb test is going well, and that the results will be known soon. My 2000 theory of mass-metric gravity (arXiv 0012059) gives the same answers as GR for the 3 classical tests, but predicts the absence of any out-of-plane Lense-Thirring precession...

    Alternative theories being tested by Gravity probe B

    Another prediction for the gpb, based on mass-metric relativity. Mass-metric relativity is a scalar theory of gravity, and is based on the increase of mass with speed and with gravitational potential. Its predictions for the gpb are: geodetic rate -6.56124 arcsec/yr. Note the sign...
