dgruss23,

Each time I see this kind of 'result' I keep asking myself if it's about time to introduce a kind of 'new theory of gravity'. And then my 'enemies' come up with yet another material field with properties to settle down the idiotically new evidence.

So - no, nothing can happen that would ever sway the orthodoxes from sticking to the classic GR. There's always a way to interpret any possible new experimental reality as a new 'matter field', AND THEN THEY GLADLY SWALLOW ANOTHER NOBEL PRIZE FOR YET ANOTHER MALICIOUS DECEPTION.
