TL;DR: In this paper, a 14 months of data obtained from radio ranging to the Viking spacecraft was verified to an estimated accuracy of 0.1%, the prediction of the general theory of relativity that the roundtrip times of light signals traveling between the earth and Mars are increased by the direct effect of solar gravity.
