Based on Dr Chou's figures, time is going 5.4 days, per "Earth" day faster, 1 light year distance from Earth, when not near another gravity well.
Is this correct?
Can any-one tell me exactly by how much, does speed slow time down?
I understand that speed and distance are parameters in the calculation but first I need to establish an approximation of the increase that time experiences the further it gets from a gravity well.

I am trying to portray a method of time travel on another thread. I have no maths. It's NOT helping. I was wondering if anyone would care to venture into the project?
My idea is as such:
Based on the fact that time is variable to gravity. (See link)
I suggest that should gravity be...
None of my friends jog, so if they did they wouldn't get far. Let's say a mile. I expect they'd take a round trip. It would be sensible.
1 mile x 7 x 2 = 14
Sorry Dave, that's all I've got.

O.K. Granted. But where are you getting with it?
Ash and Dave have not as yet either proved or disproved a fermion's ability to be in two places at the same time. Personally I was routing for Dave. The practical applications of this would be megalithic and very marketable. Dave is a smart...
I would also like link to skaffen's thread.
Hi TheAlkemist. I have an interesting "gravity" related method of time travel going on thread below. It is also time and dimension related, so I think you would be interested.

Oh, Dave. I'm so chuffed because you know what, I already had my jogging kit on.
I will consider your question, maths not being my strong point. I'll answer that later.
But in the mean time...
Just a thought process:
If a jogger jogs on Earth in Earth's time/frame, he will be going...
Brin, could I please disassociate myself here. You have used my post to quote Magnethos. It is my fault for leaving too much of his original post in mine, I do admit. Let me clear this up. I agree with Magnetos in that he says that everybody has something to offer despite the origins of...
You go to space in a normal craft and time is moving fast, so fast that your loved one's are dead when you return.
You go to space in a gravity controlled craft using slow time, you come back and your loved one's are alive.
Now what is not time travelish about that?
Goodness gracious how I wish...
No, that's not true. If you go to the top of this page and look directly under the google adds, there is a page 8. Click on it, I'm the last one at the bottom. I was wondering. I would have posted it again for you but didn't want to get accused of repeating myself and violating rules.
I am seriously enjoying this link.
I have read books such as Sidartha, Jonathon Livingston Seagull,etc, that take a philosophical approach but have never read anything about philosophy itself.
I can appreciate that this is something different again and am fasinated.
I have come across...
Oh, I don't see why you should be grumpy. I have included these links about time and gravity. If you don't get where I'm coming from, I won't push my point.

No change on the "creating time" project, but just to ask did you actually read my method of time travel post? Because what I was suggesting (not withstanding the considerable gravity control problem) was that one's age would stay at the same rate or perhaps (taking into consideration intensity...
