Yep, calibration and clean-up of the data transmitted back to earth from the experiment has taken on a life all its own, and given some unexpected effects interfering with the gyroscopes, which require additional adjustments to the data, make me wonder how accurate and unbiased the final results will be.

>My, those measurements are really complicated. I am wondering, once again, whether they should have sent a probe to orbit Jupiter, which has more mass (x 300) and a faster rotation (about 10 hours). However, that may have been offset, at least in part, by the fact that the probe must be farther from the center of the planet (x 11), because of Jupiter's large diameter.
