This will not establish a value for c.  You would have
to assume that Maxwell was correct, and the
"ballistic photon" folks do not assume that.

              At this point I am interested only to find out
 if the lightspeed was really found experimentally
constant, using cosmic sources of radiation,
and of course to learn where this information
was published and  accessible for the public.

Yes. Used in MMX experiments, and yielded a constant.

... you can start here:

You could use the Moon as a shutter, and if the
CMBR or other high-z source that should be
occulted by the Moon is not occulted at a similar
time as local visible light objects, then you will
have detected an anisotropy.  The 1.3 second
one-way transit time can be multiplied by a (1+z)
of almost 5 for some objects, and more than 1000
for the CMBR.

Might even get to publish a fancy paper or two
on the subject.

     Thanks for the tip!
I am not really interested in publishing now.
I just got this challenge for myself, to understand
how things are with special relativity theory and
the basics of EM theory. I do not reject anything
from the start and I not accept anything as real
physics without experimental facts. Even the
experimental facts are subject to interpretation.
For example, I can imagine easily an alternative
interpretation to time-dilation found for the case
of muons.:-)

Good. Now review all the data of muons measured at different
altitudes, and with systems that use multiple detectors at different
levels, and all yield velocity less than c.

The problem with "special case solutions" is that they fail when you
get away form the special case... and relativity goes a lot further
before it fails.
