It's about time! Ultra-accurate clocks prove time moves faster at your face than your feet

[imadaman]

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;25024858]For clarification, whatever is closer to the earth is slower time, and whatever is further away is faster. Gravity effects time, and the farther you are away from a gravity source, the faster time goes theoretically.[/QUOTE]

Better, in my opinion: The closer you are a gravity source, the slower the time goes for you.

[QUOTE=BurnEmDown;25023637]So the farther you are from the core of the earth, the slower time passes?

Does it mean that on other planets, time will pass slower or faster as well?[/QUOTE]

What part of "Gravatational fields distort time" don't you understand?

There are no words man, for the kind of stupid you just pulled.

I thought we knew this ages ago?
We already sent up really accurate clocks into space and they've proved it as well.

But...Let`s say you`re in a huge area with only Planets with a smaller mass than our solar system. Time will be faster relatively but when you`re there time will pass at the same rate we preceive.

God damn it I love science

holy fuck you're using the wrong apostrophe

Possibly, the larger the mass and gravitational pull an entity has, the more it warps spacetime around it.

[QUOTE=Micr0;25023864]I'll never understand this stuff. I wish I could, it seems so intriguing, but my mind just can't process how this shit works. Time is such an abstract subject.[/QUOTE]

what if you walk around on your hands

HUH

Oh my god this is so old.
