The double pulsar J0737-3039A/B consists of a recycled 22-millisecond pulsar (A) and a young 2.7-second pulsar (B) in a highly relativistic 2.4-hour orbit. This system provides an unprecedented laboratory for testing the timing predictions of strong-field gravitational theories and for investigating the interactions of the emissions of the two pulsars through eclipse and profile studies. We present an updated timing solution for the two objects, including the most precise test of strong-field general relativity to date, and an update on the profile evolution due to geodetic precession.
