Gravitation in the solar system and metric extensions of general relativity

Despite its remarkable agreement with gravity tests in the solar system, general relativity is challenged at larger scales. Large scale tests performed in the solar system by the Pioneer 10/11 probes have failed to confirm the expected gravity laws. We discuss here extensions of general relativity which preserve its geometrical nature while showing an ability to conciliate the Pioneer anomalies with other gravity tests. Further testable phenomenological consequences are also briefly discussed.
