Experiment and Observation (15)
Early results from a mission to test two key predictions of Albert Einstein show he was right about at least one.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/6561391.stm
Describes proposed experiments to test whether the equivalence principle is violated when test masses of different chirality are used (parity violation). By Alan M. ("Uncle Al") Schwartz.
http://www.mazepath.com/uncleal/eotvos.htm
A summary of tests of the foundations and predictions of special relativity, by Tom Roberts, Siegmar Schleif and others. Part of the Physics FAQ.

Gravity Probe B is the relativity gyroscope experiment being developed by NASA and Stanford University to test two extraordinary, unverified predictions of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity.
http://einstein.stanford.edu/
An experiment at the University of Washington seeks to determine whether the gravitational binding energy of an object generates gravity of its own.

Article by Mark P. Haugan and Claus Lämmerzahl about the different versions of the equivalence principle (one of the basic assumptions that led to general relativity) and the various experiments that have been performed to test it, as well as those that
http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0103067
Article by Clifford Will in Physics World about the way that gravitational physics has become a truly experimental science as tests of the special and general theories of relativity reach new levels of precision.
http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/print/21148
Thorough review article by Neil Ashby (University of Colorado) about the various relativistic effects that play a role in the operation of the Global Positioning System and other satellite navigation systems. Published in Living Reviews in Relativity.
http://relativity.livingreviews.org/Articles/lrr-2003-1/index.html
A two part overview of the Shapiro radar bounce test of general relativity. (The two parts consist of a section for normal people, and one for nerds)

Article by Ingrid H. Stairs (University of British Columbia) published in Living Reviews of Relativity about how pulsar timing methods can be used to test different predictions of general relativity for the propagation of light, gravitational time dilatio
