I am very confused here, because my_wan seems to be arguing with my_wan, but anywhoooo:

It is the meterstick or in you words the "the observer" and "his measuring rod" that I said changed proper units.
2)
Surely you can't seriously be saying that a measuring stick in your hand changes length by your own measure as you change depth in a gravitation feild?
3)
Keyword; "appear to". I don't claim the sun changed mass but in the new units that are proper to the observer stated here it "appears" to him as if it does.
This is not even anything new to physics and can be checked against the standard model. I'm therefore still lost on what you disagreed with.

What I was complaining about was that you said the sun seems to gain mass, and that is not true. The mass remains the same, the rod changes, thus the volume of the sun changes, and with the same mass that means that the density of the sun changes.
