the velocity curve profile in the absence of any dark matter [@McCulloch2017].

This top-down approach from new theoretical models to fit the data for the anomaly is unlikely to be successful at the present state of research in this area. Although the observations of the anomaly are clear in some cases, it is still on the threshold of detectability (or it is simply absent) from other flyby manoeuvers (such as the Juno flyby of the Earth on October, 2013 [@Jouannic; @Thompson]). It seems more reasonable to improve the analysis of the flyby trajectories performed around the Earth and to carry out more analysis of other flyby manoeuvers in the future. This would help to clarify the existence of such an anomaly, its relation to standard gravity and its manifestation in missions to other planets. The very nature of this anomaly, with its variations in sign and magnitude from flyby to flyby, has made very difficult to find a consistent pattern among them [@Anderson2008] in order to settle its characteristics and phenomenology.

This could have been done by a dedicated science mission such as the, now cancelled, Space-Time Explorer and Quantum Equivalence Principle Space Test (STE-QUEST) spacecraft [@STEQUEST]. But, as gravity
