    heres one that will blow your mind. The further away from a mass you are the faster time speeds up. Don't believe me? They have to adjust GPS satellites times in space so they correlate with earths times. If they didn't, your GPS would be off by miles every year

    That's a gravity-time relativity issue. Time never speeds up or slows down unless it is relative to another gravitational situation.

    i'm afraid this may be a trend, nola.  this was covered on a previous thread, but it appears not to have 'stuck'. 

    two threads within days re: gravity and time.  this place has come a long way since the days of people threatening to "drop them/you where they/you stand", the "braided nether regions" encounter, and the "italian sausage affair"

    A couple months ago, there was a video of a chef showing how to make a three cheese blend. He actually PUT 3 CHEESES TOGETHER! I'm still recovering from that one....

    1 million second is 11.5 days.  How long is 1 billion seconds?

    1 billion = 1 million x 1.0E3
    11,500 = 11.5 and hippity hop decimal point over E3

    A million seconds is 13 days.
    A billion seconds is 31 years.
    A trillion seconds is 31,688 years.

    @HeavyG - I use the 31.7 years to illustrate the magnitude of gubmint spending and can't get my head around the trillion number.  I usually work it into the conversation along the lines of,  "if you were born and could immediately start counting at one second intervals, you would be 31.7 years old when you got to the 1B mark."  Most of us are on the planet for a little over 2B seconds.  Ouch- I am pushing the envelope;)

    That's a gravity-time relativity issue. Time never speeds up or slows down unless it is relative to another gravitational situation.

    so you could orbit a massive black hole for years. Come back to Earth and be hundreds of years younger than anyone else when you left. So that means we can travel ahead of time, but we can never travel back in time.
