Jumping the gun a bit there, I think …

This paper's been around for a while. (Submitted to arXiv in Aug 2010).

Thermal recoil from onboard systems is their current avenue of investigation, but I don't think it is fully conclusive yet. (??)

Cheers

Thanks Bojan ...
I have views on why as you know ...basically it is the drag of the nonexistent aether which will finally cause them to appear to stop and then race away at a speed the same as the solar systems orbital speed.

Will this mean the current approach to gravity will need to be changed...no..well not my view of how gravity works.

Thanks again.

They have been on this for some time now and nothing I have read seems more than grasping straws rather than conclude adjustments must be made.

The observations basically do not fit the current laws so it is an extremely important matter to nail down.

But I have tried to help what more can I do
