And these are...?
Here's some for you...
[1] Gravity Probe B. Why is it expected to show any results at all?
(It got scooped, actually; some researchers precalculated the
results by looking at the orbits of already-launched satellites.)
[2] Mercury's orbit precesses. This precession cannot be fully
explained by Newtonian formulae. Various binary star systems
which contain neutron stars also validate GR fairly well,
sdepite our lack of exact information regarding their
masses.
[3] MMX, while not quite worthy enough for GR, nevertheless establishes
conclusive evidence that there is no rigid luminiferous aether,
though there might be a frictionless luminiferous aether.
I'd be curious as to whether one's tried pointing the
MMX apparatus at Venus.
[4] GPS/NST-2 and Hafele-Keating, despite the withdrawal
of the latter from certain publications, establish
a good case for SR/GR. (Which ones? I don't know;
this is according to Henri W. The only thing I know
was withdrawn was a paper based on Cassini-Hyugen
measurements. I don't know why. Google says nothing
about Hafele Keating withdrawal.)
[5] I have no conclusive data regarding particle acceleration
and designs of particle accelerators, but there is a very
sizable difference between the theories if one is
to successfully accelerate protons into the multi-GeV range.
(The rest energy of a proton can be expressed in SR
as 0.946485 GeV.)
[6] Experiments involving radar bouncing off Venus have already
been performed.
