We have considered two plausible mission architectures for the exploration of the outer Solar System that may also be used to test the Pioneer anomaly. Firstly a class of low-mass low-thrust missions to Pluto, Neptune or Uranus. For this mission type the Pioneer anomaly investigation can be performed by radio-tracking of the exploration spacecraft. The other mission paradigm considered is that of a μ-spacecraft piggybacked on a large nuclearreactor-powered spacecraft sent to explore Jupiter or Saturn. The small spacecraft would be jettisoned from the mother spacecraft on the approach to its destination, would use the target planet of the mother spacecraft for a powered swingby, and subsequently performs the Pioneer anomaly investigation by radio tracking on a hyperbolic coast arc. Starting from a review of our knowledge of the effect, we have derived a set of minimal requirements for the spacecraft design and trajectory.

ok then theory two
recently i heard that dacay rates of radioactive isotopes has changed and this leads me to think that the radioactive output is reletive to the suns electrical output
this output has lowered and is not chaging the magnetic feild enough and as a consiquence is not allowing a large enough charge to build up over the bodies of the satilites
any takers to this theory?

A force exists in the outer region of our solar system that causes gravity to repel rather than to attract. It is a force which balances the gravitational forces produced by the Sun and objects in our system.
The source of energy for this anti-gravitational force is the larger gravitational forces of the galaxy.
As we move from areas between the arms of the galaxy, we enter areas of electromagnetic repulsion. When we do, we are forced back into our own solar system. The areas of electromagnetic repulsion are powered by the winding of the arms of the galaxy.

yep.... the suns magnetic field is affecting our solar system..we are seeing the effect in lighter smaller materials made from magnetically conductive materials.
it is a constant because eveything within the suns field will become harmonic with it.
