Standing in the elevator of a towering skyscraper, you might wonder if your journey upward changes more than just your view. The answer might surprise you: time itself actually flows differently as ...

Time is not the same everywhere in space. On Mars, it flows on average 477 microseconds more each Earth day (24h) than on Earth, an imperceptible but real difference that originates from the laws of ...

The researchers used measurements from the Moon's gravity to program a software package that can measure lunar time.

Time really does move faster on Mars, but the breakthrough that confirms it did not come from a spacecraft’s stopwatch. Instead, physicists have finally pushed Einstein’s equations far enough, and ...

One of the general theories of relativity, ' time dilation, ' is a phenomenon in which when the gravity applied to two points is different, the time at the two points travels differently. When we say ...
