Nowhere in these links below, academic or industrial,

None of them mention Newton's laws of motion, either.


Just how dumb can Peter get? Newton’s law is not in question here.
shrug

Why would you think that a Garmin GPS brochure would talk about General
Relativity?


If they applied relativity, they will mention it in their algorithm.
shrug

Their algorithm is very certainly covered in the “navigation equation”
section of the following link.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS

If you possess knowledge in algebra, you should have no problem figure
out what it is saying. Notice there is no relativity coming into play
in the algorithm. shrug

Only some few papers written by kikes, make a big
deal about the vanishing to non-existent role that
SR/GR is supposed to play in GPS...


Why didn't you Google "GPS relativity", if you wanted to find out who has
written papers on this.

When I do this, these are the first few links I get:

http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/...Unit5/gps.html

Not Jewish.

Professor of astronomy at Ohio State.


It is sad a professor would blindly repeat garbage like that without
investigating further and understanding the subject better. shrug

Is the Darb still in Ohio State?

http://metaresearch.org/cosmology/gps-relativity.asp

Not Jewish.

Physics Professor at Maryland U.


Oh, another self-styled physicist. shrug

http://www.physicscentral.com/explore/writers/will.cfm

Not Jewish.

Physics professor at Washington Uni.


Yet another one who does not understand the GPS. shrug
