Radio metric data from the Pioneer 10/11, Galileo, and Ulysses spacecraft indicate an apparent anomalous, constant, acceleration acting on the spacecraft with a magnitude $\sim 8.5\times 10^{-8}$ cm/s$^2$, directed towards the Sun. Two independent codes and physical strategies have been used to analyze the data. A number of potential causes have been ruled out. We discuss future kinematic tests and possible origins of the signal.

  1. Horizon-scale tests of gravity theories and fundamental physics from the Event Horizon Telescope image of Sagittarius A$^*$

    gr-qc 2022-05 conditional novelty 5.0

    EHT observations of Sgr A* constrain deviations from GR black hole solutions including regular BHs, string-inspired spacetimes, and BH mimickers, with some limits exceeding cosmological bounds.

  2. The Confrontation between General Relativity and Experiment

    gr-qc 2014-03 accept novelty 2.0

    Experiments confirm general relativity to high precision in weak-field and strong-field regimes, with gravitational wave damping matching predictions to better than 0.5 percent.
