等效原理卫星测试（STEP）将通过测量无阻力卫星中低温差分加速度计中测试圆柱体的下落速率差异，以接近 108 分之一的精度来测试地球轨道上物体下落的相等性。本文描述了当前的基线设计以及STEP任务设计中使用的原则。
The Satellite Test of the Equivalence Principle (STEP) will test the equality of fall of objects in Earth orbit to an accuracy approaching one part in 108 by measuring the difference in rate of fall of test cylinders in cryogenic differential accelerometers in a drag-free satellite. This paper describes the current baseline design and principles used in the design of the STEP mission.
