if the time component of space-time is not a constant as assumed, i think it could explain the old question of why our spacecraft don't move at the expected speed/acceleration.

this should be a testable idea. for example, the time-correction necessary to match the velocity and/or acceration for all the discreptancies, pioneer probe, voyger probe, gravity assisted acceleration, etc. ...should be identical.
