    Time
In summary, the conversation discusses the concept of time and its relationship with gravity and space. The speakers debate whether time is a force or an outcome and how it is perceived by beings. They also touch upon the idea that objects with mass contain a significant amount of space and energy. One speaker suggests that time is an effect caused by particles interacting with virtual particles in the universe.

[SOLVED] time and time again

IN the interests of discussion, the following is not a theory but an observation guided by selected principles espoused by others over time.

If one thinks of gravity as space that shrinks towards it's centre then one can see that relativistic speeds increase as one gets closer to this centre (hence attraction). One cubic metre of space near our moon is larger than one cubic metre of space on the planets surface. So therefore to travel one metre in volumetric space on the moon is relativistically slower than that on earth.( a sense of wieghtlessness in like a sense of slow time)

I feel that to differentiate between forces is our main problem and I also believe that time is only an outcome not a force. Because time can only be perceived and felt by a perceptive being as an event of happening using comparative methods, rather than an event of causality.


An interesting observation of logic is that the space inside our theoretical atom is greater than what is outside it. As gravity?space compresses the space involved becomes greater so an object of mass contains an enourmous amount of space/gravity and could be regarded as an energistic potential.

Have fun

I too think that time is an effect, not a cause. I think it is caused by any particle's interations with the virtual particle flux that is everywhere.
 

FAQ: What is the relationship between gravity and time?

What is time and time again?

Time and time again is a phrase that refers to something that happens repeatedly or consistently.

Why do we measure time?

We measure time to keep track of the duration of events and to coordinate activities with others.

How is time measured?

Time is typically measured using units such as seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years. These units are based on natural phenomena such as the Earth's rotation and the cycles of the moon.

Can time travel be possible?

While time travel is a popular concept in science fiction, it is currently not possible according to our current understanding of physics. However, some theoretical models, such as the theory of relativity, suggest that time travel may be possible in the future.

How does time affect our daily lives?

Time plays a crucial role in our daily lives, as it helps us plan and organize our activities, and also allows us to reflect on past experiences and anticipate future events. It also influences our biological rhythms and sleep patterns.
