Apparatus:
One perfectly stable atomic clock that emits regular radio 'ticks'.
One non-rotating planet identical to Earth.
One orbiting space capsule.
Two observers with accurate counters and telescopes.
Initially, the two observers and the clock are together on the ground.
Step 1: one observer (OO) is sent into a perfectly circular and constant 26000
km orbit around the planet.
Step 2: Both the OO and the ground observer (GO) count the number of ticks the
GC (ground clock) emits PER ORBIT OF THE OO. For accuracy, counting is
performed over a billion orbits and with the use of the telescopes in order to
pinpoint the start and end points.
Step 3: By radio, both observers compare their individual results and agree the
clock emits N ticks per orbit. (Their numbers MUST agree because ticks cannnot
get lost in space)
Step 4: The clock is launched to join the OO in the same orbit.
Step 5: Both observers again count the number of tick emitted by the clock PER
OO orbit. The agree on the answer N+n.
Their conclusions: Both conclude that the time interval defined by OO's orbit period occupied N
ticks when the clock was on the ground and N+n ticks when it was in orbit.
You know of course that this experiment is done.
The results are as you state above:
The clock on earth ticks N ticks between each time
the satellite in the same angular position.
In orbit the same clock ticks N(1+4.4647*10^-10) per orbit.
They also conclude that the clock was physically affected by being placed into
free fall orbit and is now running faster than it was.
But that conclusion is based on the unfounded assertion
"time is absolute", and not on the experiment.
That's why no scientist ever drew this conclusion from this experiment.
Compare this with Einstein's claims.
GR "claims" that the clock on earth should tick N ticks between
each time the satellite is in the same angular position,
and that the same clock in orbit should tick N(1+4.4647*10^-10) ticks per orbit.
Exactly as observed.
This is one of the many experiments confirming GR.
