Re: E = 3/4 mc² or E = mc²? The forgotten Hassenohrl 1905 work.

Personally, I hope that the next space-borne equivalence principle
test, whatever technology it uses (STEP never got the funding that
it deserved), finds that the equivalence principle breaks down at
some level of accuracy. As I have written elsewhere:
