Therefore, you can expect more Pioneer and GPS anomalies, and RED
and BLUE "shifting", Hubble EXPANSiON & SPACE-time-CURVATURE, etc.
[These are ALL MUCH BETTER ..for the "PULP & PAPERs" economy. And,
ALL the ASTRONOMERs look VERY clever explaining it ASS-BACKWARDs].

Astronomers observe moving emitters every night

This is plain and simply not true. What is _observed_ is Doppler
shift. No astronomer has ever observed "time" (presumably meaning
time _at_the_source_) -- astronomy simply does not work that way.

This is generally right, but there are cases in which astronomers
can observe a standard "clock." The results conform exactly to
the predictions of relativity.

For example, a pulsar is basically a rotating ball of neutrons,
with a ``spot'' that beams light out, much like a lighthouse.
When the beam crosses the Earth, we see a pulse of light. Isolated
pulsars are in fact extremely accurate clocks, comparable to our
best atomic clocks, but they're based on a simple mechanical mechanism,
the rotation of a ball of neutrons.

Every once in a while, though, we find a binary pulsar, a pulsar in
orbit around another neutron star. If the orbit is not exactly
circular, the pulsar's orbital speed varies as it moves (basically
according to Kepler's law). When we look at the rate of the "clock,"
as measured by the frequency of the pulses, we see exactly the amount
of time dilation predicted by special relativity. We can also see
gravitational time dilation, since the pulsar moves farther from and
then closer to the companion neutron star. Again, the amount agrees
with the predictions of general relativity.

(Strictly speaking, we see a combination of these two effects. You
could, I suppose, claim that the special relativistic effect isn't
really there, and that the gravitational time dilation differs from
the predictions of general relativity by just the amount needed to
mimic special relativistic time dilation. But this requires some
extraordinary special pleading, since both effects can be observed,
separately, in controlled lab experiments.) Steve Carlip
