About GBE Formula

Just want to know because the page gives a few mixed answers, for calcing GBE of celestial bodies, which method would be the most accurate way to do that?
 
This page contains all the necessary information about GBE.
No that I know, what I was asking about was which method would be the most accurate?

Mainly cuz I saw that note about Earths GBE having been found with a “more accurate method” so I wasn’t sure if the normal formula was best or if using the calculator was okay

To my knowledge, there is only one method, so I'm unsure of any that would be the "most accurate".

Mind linking me the note?

If you go further down the page, there’s some GBE values for some celestial objects listed and under earths value there’s this in parentheses.

List of approximate GBE values for various objects​

  • Earth's moon (Luna): 1.24e29J
  • Earth: 2.487e32J (Calculated with a more accurate method than the above formula)
  • OTS 44: 6.906e37J
  • VB 10: 3.139e40J
  • The sun (Sol): 5.693e41J
  • Rigel A: 3.817e42J
