For some reason I always forget to check the equations :s. It would have been cool though :) S. ps: in the formula on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_time_dilation#Outside_a_non-rotating_sphere you can also set M to 0, same result (obviously)...

I thought that the 'solution' to the twin paradox was that first the traveling twin was traveling away from his Earth'sick brother with two different reference frames, but traveling back he travels in a third reference frame, one that is the inverse of his first one, eliminating any gain or lose...

I read on wikipedia that time goes slower in higher gravitational fields, I also know that 'inside' a black hole time stands still. (simplified, I know) Does this mean that in places where the gravitational field is extremely low (far apart from galaxies and any other objects having mass)...

tsss ;) Yeah, well, I kinda hold on to the idea until I can do the whole calculation and the whole equation is solved on my own special way, so expect either the aha-post or, I hope, a calculation that needs further investigation... Anyway, I know already know that an important element...

First of all: congrats about the truly professional way of welcoming me here... right to the case and stuff, I'm quite impressed. Secondly: I must admit that I'm relatively new to relativity, especially special relativity so try to bear with me... And now the analysis: I gave the...

Dear forum, when I first read about special relativity I came up with this paradox. I went to the teacher who gave me the booklet but he couldn't answer my question. I'm quite confident that this forum is the place to answer my question: Does time goes slower or faster inside the...
