The increasing accuracy of the astrometric parameters expected of modern astrometric catalogs raises the question of to which extent subtle relativistic effects included in astrometric models are needed. The most interesting effect for astrometry is gravitational light deflection: according to general relativity, massive bodies bend the light rays on their way from a source to the astrometric...
