A gravitational time dilation is a form of time dilation, an actual difference of elapsed time between two events as measured by observers situated at varying distances from a gravitating mass. The lower the gravitational potential, the slower time passes, speeding up as the gravitational potential increases. Follow me (@spaceadailydose ) for Astronomy & Space related Stuff💯 .

Albert Einstein's theory of relativity is the basis for our understanding of the universe, but if you still aren't quite sure how it works, this video does an excellent job of explaining.

A phenomenon of quantum mechanics known as superposition can impact timekeeping in high-precision clocks, according to a theoretical study from Dartmouth College, Saint Anselm College and Santa Clara University. Research describing the effect shows that superposition — the ability of an atom to e

Time dilation is the lengthening of the time interval between two events when seen in a moving inertial frame rather than the rest frame of the events (in which the events occur at the same location). Observers moving at a relative velocity v do not measure the same elapsed time between two events. Proper time Δτ is the time measured in the reference frame where the start and end of the time interval occur at the same location.
