Is Pioneer 10 probe observing an anomalous centripetalacceleration of the Earth with respect to the Sun?

From that point of view, we'd wrongly conclude
that the Earth is not where it should be. IOW,
we would observe the Earth from a Pioneer
probe as orbitally decaying *toward the Sun.
No, following your "model", the Sun and all the
planets you are passing also are anomalously
accelerated away from you (Sunward).
That's what I said, an anomalous acceleration
toward the Sun.
Dude, did you read what I wrote? The Sun is acclerating away equally
fast. How can the Earth "orbitally decay towards the Sun", if the Sun
is also accelerated away?
