| 3. | Galileo, Newton and Einstein Facing the Challenge of 21st Century Space Technology with the Microscope Mission |
| | The accuracy (10-15) of the Microscope's ultra-sensitive accelerometers, designed and manufactured by Onera, is such that it would make possible the detection of the difference postulated by some theoreticians.... If the ultra-sensitive accelerometer measures a minute deviation between the two trajectories (with an accuracy of up to one ten millionth of a billionth of earth's gravity), this would mean a violation of the principle of equivalence.... |
