just curious..
want to do some fiddling around with it
 
Astronomy news on Phys.org
Try this one:
[tex]T = \frac{T_0}{\sqrt{1-\frac{2GM}{Rc^2}}}[/tex]​
G is the gravitational constant, M is a mass, c is speed of light, T is a time interval measured far away from the mass, and T0 is the time interval measured by a clock at distance R from the mass.

Thank you i will..
