Objectivity: is a property of determinations about facts. It is assumed that the properties attributed to the facts are determined by the facts and are not, or as little as, influenced by the attributing person. In order to determine whether this requirement is fulfilled, consideration must be given to the methods of access to information. This goes beyond the facts considered.

Bernulf Kanitscheider on Objectivity - Dictionary of Arguments

I 174
Tidal force/oibjwctivity/Kanitscheider: in fields affected by real gravitational forces, bodies do not fall on parallel geodesics, but on converging trajectories.(i.e. lines intersecting a given set of curves at equal angles).
As a result, a body is stretched in length. The effect goes back to the different strength of the attacking gravity, which decreases with the square of the distance.
This (differential) tidal force is not transformable away! (formula + I 174).
One can say that the tidal force is the objectively real element of RT! There is no reference frame which can transform it away.
