He concludes that spacecraft “flybys of heavenly bodies may be viewed as a new test of Special Relativity which has proven to be successful near the Earth.” He proposes a follow-up of tracking the spacecraft trajectories beyond just the probes’ closest approach to Earth to test this hypothesis further. But Mbelek says we just haven’t been doing the physics right. Other explanations had proposed dark matter or “Unruh radiation” could be the answer. “Thus, GR (General Relativity) does not need to be questioned and the flyby anomaly is merely due to an incomplete analysis using conventional physics,” says Mbelek. When a well known but overlooked effect of Special Relativity is taken into account, where the transverse Doppler effect of the Earth’s spin and the velocity of the craft are factored in, there is no flyby anomaly. In a very short and concise paper, (reading it is like watching Will Hunting solve the MIT professor’s equation), Jean Paul Mbelek from CEA-Saclay in France says that the relative motion of the spacecraft and the spinning Earth have not been properly accounted for. The speed of the spacecraft is measured by the Doppler shift in radio signals from the spacecraft to the antennas of the Deep Space Network. But a new paper proposes that Special Relativity may explain everything. This is an analysis of a large facial formation set within a glacial moraine along the southeast corner of Alberta, Canada, known as the Badlands Guardian. They had concluded the anomaly was too large to be explained by known effects related to Einstein’s general theory of relativity. The 'Indian Head' geoglyph, that is quite prominent from the air, has been the subject of speculation for many years. (More commonly known as the 'Badlands Guardian'.) This paper was commissioned by 'Earths International Research Society' (E.I.R.S.) with reference to the Indian Head anomaly located 40 miles East of Medicine Hat, Canada (50 0' 38.20N 110 6 48.32W). Earlier this year, a group of JPL researchers that had been working on the problem for years basically threw up their hands, saying they hoped other physicists could come up with a solution. A Study of the Indian Head Located at Medicine Hat, Canada. The largest anomaly was recorded for NEAR, whose velocity changed 13 millimeters per second more than it should have. The 'head' may have been created during a short period of fast erosion immediately following intense rainfall. 2 5 The arid badlands are typified by infrequent but intense rain-showers, sparse vegetation and soft sediments. All these probes showed an expected change in speed during the flyby. The head is a drainage feature created through erosion of soft, clay -rich soil by the action of wind and water. Rosetta - the ESA spacecraft that recently flew by an asteroid – swung by the home planet in March 2005, followed by MESSENGER in August of the same year. First there was Galileo in 19, NEAR, which flew by Earth in January 1998, and then Cassini in August of 1999. Several different spacecraft have exhibited unexplained changes in speed during gravity assists when flying by Earth.
