Measurements of general relativistic effects in the binary pulsar PSR1913 + 16, Nature 277, 8 February 1979, pp. 437-440 [FULL VOLUME]
FIRST EDITION OF THE FIRST DISCOVERY OF GRAVITATIONAL WAVES IN THE BINARY PULSAR – the gravitational waves Einstein predicted in his 1916 theory of general relativity. This is the first proof that “radiation leaves the system of a binary pulsar at exactly the speed of light and as gravitational waves”..... More
