Re: Mysterious force holds back Nasa probe in deep space.
The article was a little misleading by saying it is pulling the them back toward the sun, as if they were returning to the sun. Of course they explain that it is a very small retrograde acceleration, not nearly enough to turn them around. One thing implied was that the force was constant, as if it wasn’t decreasing with distance. That is strange. It doesn’t obey the inverse square law? Or am I reading something into it that’s not there. Any way a very interesting phenomenon
