    B Is there a connection between gravity and the pace of time?

    I realize that your understanding of this is beyond mine, so please view these questions as a yearning to learn. I am trying to gain the best understanding I can and with that, being critical is a habit, possibly a bad habit. I am not sure of another way to define it and I am not questioning...

    B Is there a connection between gravity and the pace of time?

    Thanks PeterDonis. I will take a look at the lecture. I agree trying to mix biology into this only reduces clarity. I think you are answering my original question despite the verbal awkwardness. Since the speed of light is a constant - a time clock will never change its pace. This is what I...

    B Is there a connection between gravity and the pace of time?

    Very informative. Thank you. I find it very interesting on how time is measured. If I read your definition correctly, a second is measured by a scalar quantity - the periods (cycles/second) of radiation of a specific cesium atom. Which makes me think that we (humans) still do not have a...

    B Is there a connection between gravity and the pace of time?

    Ok. Thank you all for the help. Specifically (Marvin the Martian 10,007) Some of these concepts I understand after gathering information and others I am still processing. I have an idea that is tough to articulate and gaining the vocabulary is proving to be the big challenge. Having said...

    B Is there a connection between gravity and the pace of time?

    Full disclosure, I am novice and I do not know much of the lexicon associated with physics. Please forgive the vagueness of the language I use as the proper terms are unknown. Insight on the theoretical properties of the question as well as insight on the correct vocabulary is appreciated. It...
