This is the first of five connected papers detailing progress on the Gravity Probe B (GP-B) Relativity Mission. GP-B, launched 20 April 2004, is a landmark physics experiment in space to test two fundamental predictions of Einstein’s general relati

Summary Thermal demagnetization of the natural magnetization of Carboniferous basalts from Scotland has successfully revealed the original direction of magnetization, although the specimens had badly scattered directions at room temperature.

The Gravity Probe B experiment was developed to test two predictions of General Relativity; the Geodetic and the frame-dragging precessions of a mechanical gyroscope due to the gravitational field of the Earth. This space-based, cryogenic experiment

STEP is one of a number of missions now being developed to take advantage of the quiet space environment to carry out very sensitive gravitational experiments. Using pairs of concentric free-falling proof-masses, STEP will be able to test the equival

We describe two space based gravitational physics experiments, the Gravity Probe B Relativity Mission (GPB) and the Satellite Test of the Equivalence Principle (STEP). GP-B will perform precision tests of two independent predictions of general relati

The Equivalence Principle states that gravitational mass and inertial mass are identical quantities. However, modern theory cannot reconcile gravity with the other three fundamental forces found in nature. One possibility is that the present theory o

Few facts in science are more surprising and none has had a longer history than the apparent equivalence of the two kinds of mass in physics, gravitational and inertial. From Galileo and Newton to Eotvos and Einstein, it has been a compelling issue b

The Equivalence Principle, which states that gravitational mass and inertial mass are different ways of measuring the same property, is the experimental foundation for modern gravitational theory. Modern theory cannot reconcile gravity with the other

Gravity Probe B is an experiment to measure the geodetic and frame-dragging precessions, relative to the “fixed” “stars”, of a gyroscope placed in a 650 km altitude polar orbit about the earth. For Einstein's general relativity, the precessio
