Assuming the validity of the general relativistic description of gravitation on astrophysical and cosmological length scales, we analytically infer that the Friedmann–Robertson–Walker cosmology with Einsteinian cosmological constant, and a vanishing spatial curvature constant, unambiguously requires a significant amount of dark matter. This requirement is consistent with other indications for dark matter. The same space–time symmetries that underlie the freely falling frames of Einsteinian gravity also provide symmetries which, for the spin one half representation space, furnish a novel construct that carries extremely limited interactions with respect to the terrestrial detectors made of the standard model material. Both the "luminous" and "dark" matter turn out to be residents of the same representation space but they derive their respective "luminosity" and "darkness" from either belonging to the sector with (CPT)2 = +𝟙, or to the sector with (CPT)2 = -𝟙.

The local galactic cluster, the Great attractor, embeds us in a dimensionless gravitational potential of about -3×10-5. In the solar system, this potential is constant to about 1 part in 1011. Consequently, planetary orbits, which are determined by the gradient in the gravitational potential, remain unaffected. However, this is not so for the recently introduced flavor-oscillation clocks where the new redshift-inducing phases depend on the gravitational potential itself. On these grounds, and by studying the invariance properties of the gravitational phenomenon in the weak fields, we argue that there exists an element of incompleteness in the general relativistic description of gravitation. An incompleteness-establishing inequality is derived and an experiment is outlined to test the thesis presented.

The talk centers around the question: Can general-relativistic description of physical reality be considered complete? On the way I argue how – unknown to many a physicists, even today – the "forty orders of magnitude argument" against quantum gravity phenomenology was defeated more than a quarter of a century ago, and how we now stand at the possible verge of detecting a signal for the spacetime foam, and studying the gravitationally-modified wave particle duality using superconducting quantum interference devices.

The astonomical consequences of recently developed theoretical methods of relativistic astrometry are discussed. The set of practically important reference systems is described. These reference systems generalize the locally inertial frames of general relativistic test observer, the hierarchy of Jacoby coordinates for dynamical problems and the dynamically inertial reference systems of fundamental astrometry. In practical application of this formalism much attention is paid for relativistic transformation functions relating the ∗∗ecliptical coordinates corresponding to the baryecnters of the Solar system, the Earth-Moon subsystem and the Earth. Solutions to several kinds of relativistic precession are also presented.
