Scientific paper

The constancy of the speed of light outside the solar system is checked by a technique combining parallax, visual binary, and spectroscopic binary data. A total of ten binary systems are uncovered with parallax errors small enough to correct for systematic errors in distance estimates, which are used to check directly for the speed of light within one standard deviation. The speed is found to be constant to within 10% for distances up to 25 parsecs.
