One good thing with special and general relativity is that if there is even
one observation that violates the speed of light barrier, everything about
the theory of relativity collapses instantly and everything must be
discarded due to logical flaw in the axioms of theory. (Perhaps this was the
reason why they were reluctant to give Nobel prize from relativity.)

I myself have predicted that speed of light will get higher value when
measured from the orbit of Venus than here on Earth. And I have bet €100
about the subject. Funny thing about the tests considering SP is that speed
of light has been always measured in respect for moving light source but it
has never been measured that when the speed of the observer is changing.
Delta-v would be too small in Earth's low orbit but in Venus' orbit
relativistic effect should be observable and easily measurable.
