That is correct. | |

maybe it s just cause it s in space, where is no weight. like if you put a clock way down inside earth, the time also will be different. | |

Both clocks were obviously subject to the same weight-conferring property of gravity. Because of their motion relative to one another, the clocks then differed very slightly in their elapsed time. The amount of this deviation was consistent with that predicted by relativity theory. | |

Einstein is consistently annoying !!! | |

Yep, he tends to do that a lot ;-))) | |

Weight is just the mass multiplied by the force of gravity (converted to units of earth gravity). So, on the surface of the earth one kilo of mass also happens to weigh one kilo. Take it to the moon and that same mass would weigh only 0.167 kilo. In orbit around earth, it would have effectively no weight. The mass, however, remains one kilo no matter where it is. ____________ | |

Density = Mass per unit volume, Weight is due to gravity. | |

Density = Mass per unit volume, Weight is due to gravity. A significant observation for Relativity: 'Weight' due to gravity or due to acceleration are indistinguishable. (Which I find to be rather interesting...) I was OK up until the point where the school chemistry lab renamed the Specific Gravity (SG) bottles to Relative Density (RD). I lost the plot after that ..... Relative to what standard reference?... That sounds like a good move to avoid artificial units arbitrary conversion constants... Hence the SI units where strangely enough, the only 'arbitrary Human artefact' unit is mass... (Temperature is 'out on its own' as an arbitrary Human scale until being redefined with respect to Boltzmann's constant.) All of the SI system of units is being updated to be uniformly based upon physical constants only. Anyone for the old femtofurlongs per second?

Meanwhile, OT for a waste of time: Anyone for the old femtofurlongs per second? Anyone up to the 'challenge' of converting femtofurlongs per helek into something more understandable?! It's all to do with a Hebrew system using Babylonian barleycorns! (See also the FFF system :-) ) Keep searchin' Martin ____________ Mandriva Linux A user friendly OS!

Stop making sense with facts and logic!! Can't you just get along with the other people's delusions!!! | |

People, humans know a lot more then they themselves can describe. But we do, it is obvious. This is done by knowing a face in a large crowd. Anyone of us can pick out a loved one in a crowd. We do so by understanding the design of our loved one. It is almost instantaneous depending on the size of the crowd. It is much harder to tell someone what a loved one looks like, example, if someone is lost and you need to tell another what they look like or if you were to tell an artist and he is to paint your loved one, but you yourself can pick out that loved one very quickly in the crowd. You do so by their design. | |

yeah maybe the %chance for life is alot lower than originally thought but we know now 99.8% of all stars in the universe have from 1 to 16 planets. not only we dont divide anymore the number of suns / by the chance to have planets. we instead multiply the number of suns by a median number of planets ( stars X 8 planets ) not counting the number of moons these planets have ^^ ____________ | |

That is statistically silly. | |
