Re: Special Relativity

A satalite adjusts its clock to match the time at earth. If the satalite is experiencing what it concludes as regular time, then in fact, earth 'time' is speeding up. I have heard people try to explain to me that a fast moving (fast enough for visual time dialtion) object would see things around it slow down in time. But, if a satalite has to adjust ahead to match (if you look from its frame) earths time, then obviously earth is appearing to travel into the future. Physics WOULD HAVE to change as it became apparent that objects sped up through time on earth from the satalites perspective. Bada bap da da

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
