This presentation gives results from the Gravity Probe B Relativity Mission and some of the lessons learned on orbit. Space enables new fundamental physics experiments in General Relativity and other fields in 8 distinct ways. I shall illustrate the

STEP, the Satellite Test of the Equivalence Principle, is intended to test the apparent equivalence of gravitational and inertial mass to 1 part in 1018 (Worden et al. in Adv. Space Res. 25(6):1205–1208, 2000). This will be an increase of more than

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

Magnetic field trapped in the Gravity Probe B (GP-B) gyroscope rotors contributes to the scale factor of the science readout signal. This contribution is modulated by the rotor’s polhode motion. In orbit, polhode period was observed to change due t

STEP (the Satellite Test of the Equivalence Principle) will advance experimental limits on violations of Einstein's equivalence principle (EP) from their present sensitivity of 2 parts in 10^13 to 1 part in 10^18 through multiple comparison of the mo

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

The Satellite Test of the Equivalence Principle, STEP , will test what is arguably the most fundamental principle of physics to unprecedented accuracy. The experiment will enhance our knowledge of the identity of mass and inertia by five or more orde

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, 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
