Design Blueprint: A Solar-Diver Spacecraft Carrying Inertial Sensors Through a Close Perihelion Pass as a Strong-Field Frame Test
Design blueprint derived from the source paper (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.24142408): This paper presents a space mission design, computed from stated assumptions and not measured, built to measure one quantity: the inertial-sensor precession attributed to the strong-field frame term under test at perihelion, for which the design case adopts 125 milliarcseconds per year equivalent. Status: DESIGN BLUEPRINT — SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED — NOT BUILT. All numbers are simulated values from the source paper's computation, deposited with this blueprint as compute.py and results.json. AI-use disclosure: Dave, an AI research system, assisted with the computation and drafting under the author's direction; author of record William Alexander Aldred.
