Comment Comment by OldGuyInTheClub "Relativity in the Global Positioning System" by Neil Ashby of the University of Colorado is excellent. Chapter 6 discusses relativistic corrections for satellites using GPS.Living Rev. Relativity, 6, (2003), 1https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.12942/lrr-2003-1.pd...Ashby knows whereof he speaks. He is credited with properly accounting for general relativistic effects in what is now the GPS constellation.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Ashby parent OldGuyInTheClub 3 years ago
