A new experiment in the field of gravitation, SaToR-G, is presented. The experiment aims to compare the predictions of different theories of gravitation in the limit of weak-field and slow-motion. The ultimate goal of the experiment is to look for possible "new physics" beyond the current standard model of gravitation based on the predictions of General Relativity. A key role in the above perspective is the theoretical and experimental framework within which to confine our work. To this end, we will try to exploit as much as possible the framework suggested by Dicke over fifty years ago.
