Fine. While you are waiting, why don't you do some reading also. — Rich
Sorry, you can't stick spaceship engines in the equations. But I'll double check. — Rich
GTR — Rich
Where in the equations does it talk about biological aging? — Rich
Right. Trust them scientists ... to exaggerate all claims. — Rich
You can't blame them. — Michael Ossipoff
But those are the exceptions — Michael Ossipoff
There are many forms of exaggeration (even in the pop books) and most everyone just goes along with it because why put their neck out on the line. Anyone who protests is quickly ejected. No different than any profession where big money is at stake. Hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil. Just pretend it's not happening. — Rich
Time dilation is a real observable and measurable phenomena. Time dilation is seen in both special relativity (relative motion) and general relativity (gravity or acceleration) .
In fact the GPS system would be worthless were the effects of time dilation on the clocks in the satellites not taken into account. In this instance general relativity (gravity) effects dominate. — prothero
Clocks run based on physical principles. In the case of atomic clocks on the emissions of atoms. If the physical process on which the clocks keep time is slowed by gravity there is little reason to think the chemical processes, biochemical processes and other processes of life — prothero
Not that facts, science or even empirical data — prothero
hat scientific observations and physical empirical measurements do not explain everything, they are a good starting point for deeper insights — prothero
biology, chemistry and physics which underlie it, — prothero
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
