Direct measurements of the magnetic field of a pulsar, Hercules X-1, are cited in a reconsideration of Blackett's (1947) hypothesis that the magnetic fields of earth, the sun, and the star 78 Virginis are of gravitational origin. The Hercules data strengthens Blackett's gravi-magnetic hypothesis. However, it is pointed out that a definitive laboratory test of the simple rotational version of the gravi-magnetic hypothesis has never been carried out; such a laboratory confirmation of the Blackett hypothesis may now be feasible with advanced magnetometers.
