How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T21590488 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

A.
Gravity Probe B experiment
Gravity Probe B experiment was a NASA-led satellite mission designed to precisely measure how Earth's gravity warps space and time, providing a high-accuracy test of key predictions of Einstein's general relativity.

Relativity: Special, General, and Cosmological
"Relativity: Special, General, and Cosmological" is a widely used advanced textbook that provides a rigorous, comprehensive introduction to Einstein’s theories of special and general relativity and their cosmological applications.
-
C.
Tolman surface brightness test
The Tolman surface brightness test is an observational cosmology method that checks whether the universe is expanding by examining how the surface brightness of distant galaxies diminishes with redshift.
-
D.
On the Curvature of Space
"On the Curvature of Space" is a pioneering 1922 paper by Alexander Friedmann that introduced non-static, expanding-universe solutions to Einstein’s field equations, laying the theoretical foundation for modern cosmology.
-
E.
Space, Time and Gravitation
"Space, Time and Gravitation" is a popular science book by Arthur Stanley Eddington that explains Einstein’s theory of general relativity and its implications for our understanding of the universe.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
