→‎Reversion of my edit: You might as well claim that clocks in a sporting game are synchronized based on relativity. That would lack credibility for the same reason.

: Ron, the collection of statements above could be construed as easily as ''disproving'' relativity rather than proving it.  Decades after GPS was launched, observers still struggle to match the data to the theoretical predictions.  If some relativistic calculations are included in the synchronization but others are not, then the theory is ''disproved'', not proved by the data.

: As the [[Theory of Relativity]] page itself explains, the engineers ignored the complex predictions of relativity.  And for obvious reasons: it's easier to synchronize the clocks directly based on communications!

: Note the complete absence of any identification of a particular physicist or mathematician who supposedly provided the theoretical predictions of Relativity for the engineers.  ''That is because there were no such theoretical predictions of Relativity used in the design!''
