He doesn't do a good job explaining relativity and time.

Time slows down when you are closer to a heavy object such as the Earth, relative to someone . A person's watch ticks more slowly than a person on a mountain top, or flying in the air.

Time slows down when you are moving quickly. A watch flying in a plain or in orbit ticks more slowly than one that is stationary.

I think time is affect too thanks to frame Dragging (also called Lense-Thirring), but I don't know which direction is affected.

Love this stuff.

I hear ya; but I'm going to stick with the guy who actually went into space.


:)

I'll be in touch.

thanks, cool vid

gravity wells slow and bend light. hot tip of the day for you: when you look at stars and planets and shit in the sky with your eyes... they ain't really there homey. what you seein is the light from the objects when the light arrives at planet earth AFTER having been redirected due to the GRAVITY of big ass shit in space. some seen and some unseen... cool? :thumbsup
