Hoyt - I know this demands more attention ... but can you give us your take on it, since you have probably spent adequate time with it ?
... but .... from a quick read: Instead of an unknown anti-gravity effect - why not the simpler suggestion that the fuel was more energetic than the calculations suggested it would be - putting Explorer into a higher non-spherical orbital? This is poor science journalism, if nothing else. It seems designed to find or invent something which isn't really there. They did mention the possibility and others - then seemed to try to obfuscate it using math which assumed things which cannot be assumed (like energy content of fuel being theoretical instead of actual), and then went sideways with other suggestions - but *did they ever adequately refute* the simplest variable ? --- "Hoyt A.
