The rejection is due that Relavity doesn't explain or agree with many observed phenomena.
- TheFaraday'a homopolar generator.
- The Sagnac effect.
- The successful experiment of Michelson-Morley (not the failed that Einstein used as base for his theory).
- Gravitational shielding.
- Antigravitation experiments.
- Difference on the value for g depending on the method used for its masurement.
- Antigravitatory forces in gyroscopes.
- Aberration of lights experiments that showed that speed of light doesn't depend on the speed of the source, but yes on the receiver's speed, so is not constant.
- The speed of gravity that is very much bigger than the speed of light.
- Behaviour of Galaxies that suggest the existence of a gravitational force 1/r and not 1/r^2.
- Singularity at r = 0
- The energy stored in a gravitational field gives an infinite value.
- Not inclusion in the theory of the electromagnetic constants that define the speed of light..
- Dubvious interpretation of the Mach principle.
- Much more
- And why in some locations a car with the motor turned off and without brakes climb up a hill?
Whatever. You win.
