We experience the flow of time because it’s a natural outcome of the basic laws of physics. But we may need to build a whole new model to account for gravity’s influence.

Physicists explore idea that gravity could drive the flow of time
Theoretical physicists have spent decades wrestling with a disorienting possibility: that the flow of time is not woven into the basic laws of physics but instead emerges from gravity’s effect on heat ...
NPL has shared the results of a time dilation demonstration—which shows that time travels faster as height increases, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. The demonstration ...
Thanks to Albert Einstein, the US Government wants to establish an official time zone for the Moon. It has less to do with jet lag and more to do with how gravity affects time and can throw a lot of ...
