A Fundamental Principle Of General Relativity Just Passed Its Toughest Test Yet

A fundamental tenet of Einstein’s theory of general relativity has just passed its most rigorous test yet. Using a specially designed satellite, an international team of scientists measured the accelerations of pairs of free-falling objects in Earth orbit. Results based on five months of data indicated that accelerations differed by no more than 1 part …
