Albert Einstein's 90-year-old general theory of relativity has just been put through a series of some of its most stringent tests yet, and it has passed each one with flying colors. Radio observations show that a recently discovered binary pulsar is behaving in lockstep accordance with Einstein's theory of gravity in at least four different ways, including the emission of gravitational waves and bizarre effects that occur when massive objects slow down the passage of time.

(emphasis mine)
I thought that gravitational waves have never been detected, which Gravity Probe B was supposed to remedy.

Yeah, wonder how do they infer that.
