use this counterexample in intro: such as precise measurements of the advance of the perihelion of Mercury that show a shift greater than predicted by Relativity, well beyond the margin of error.

The '''theory of relativity''' has been repeatedly contradicted by experiments, such as precise measurements of the advance of the perihelion of Mercury that show a shift greater than predicted by Relativity, well beyond the margin of error. Criticism of the theory, however, caused physicist [[Robert Dicke]] to be denied the [[Nobel Prize]], and it is unlikely tenure or a Ph.D would be awarded to any critic of the theory.
