Speed of light in space is known thanks Roemer.s method. Now are radio
transmitters on the Mars and is possibility to use the Roemer's method for radio waves. NASA know the results. Are thy pulished? Of course, they're published. Widely. I would check Journal of Geophysical Research or similar publications. As a practical matter, precise measurements of the time of flight to/from a spacecraft is used to figure out where the spacecraft is and its radial velocity. Typical range accuracy is on the order of a few meters, velocities good to a few cm/s, for something at the orbit of Neptune or Uranus. Precise doppler measurements are used for radio science experiments, e.g. to determine the internal structure of a planet or moon by precisely measuring the orbit of a satellite. A typical performance for such a measurement is 1 part in 1E15 over 1000 seconds at 32 GHz or 8GHz. |
