True. The claim is true. Atomic clocks on satellites, such as those in the GPS system, are subject to the effects of both Einstein's special and general theories of relativity. Due to their high speed, time runs slower for the...

"Clocks in orbit are subject to the effects of Einstein's theory of relativity. Due to the enormous speed of satellites and the weaker gravitational field, time flows there minimally differently than on the Earth's surface. Engineers must constantly introduce relativistic corrections for the system to work flawlessly." "Zegary na orbicie podlegają efektom teorii względności Einsteina. Ze względu na ogromną prędkość satelitów i słabsze pole grawitacyjne, czas płynie tam minimalnie inaczej niż na powierzchni Ziemi. Inżynierowie muszą stale wprowadzać poprawki relatywistyczne, żeby system działał bezbłędnie."

Teraz wyobraź sobie skalę tej precyzji. Światło pokonuje 30 cm w ciągu 1nej miliardowej części sekundy, czyli 1 nanosekundy. Błąd zegara o zaledwie jedną milionową część sekundy przełożyłby się na kilkaset metrów przesunięcia na mapie. Kurier nie trafiłby pod twój adres, a systemy nawigacyjne zamiast pomagać powodowałyby katastrofy. Mało tego, zegary na orbicie podlegają efektom teorii względności Einsteina. Ze względu na ogromną prędkość satelitów i słabsze pole grawitacyjne, czas płynie tam minimalnie inaczej niż na powierzchni Ziemi. Inżynierowie muszą stale wprowadzać poprawki relatywistyczne, żeby system działał bezbłędnie. Taka kosmiczna mechanika pozwala na precyzyjne śledzenie milionów przesyłek w czasie rzeczywistym. Co więcej, ta sama synchronizacja czasu jest szkieletem globalnego systemu bankowego, bo każda transakcja kartą płatniczą, każdy przelew międzynarodowy i każda operacja na giełdzie wymaga nanosekundowego znacznika czasu, żeby uniknąć oszustw i błędów

"We will not wait another six decades for confirmation of which candidate is the correct one. In March 2026, the Indian orbiter Chandrayaan 2 will fly directly over the selected area. This flight is part of an ongoing lunar surface mapping project, so that in the future we know where everything is. "

"Combining lensing data with supernova data, scientists calculated that the chance of this gigantic discrepancy in results being a mere random fluke or some statistical error is less than 1 in 10 million. The crisis has become a fact, and the Hubble tension has become a real problem in physics. "

"We are entering the Vera Rubin Observatory, and it will be a true game changer, because we are launching a telescope with the largest digital camera in human history, 3.2 gigapixels. This monster will not look at a single point, but will scan the entire sky, constantly creating a time-lapse film of the universe's existence. The LSST program, or Legacy Survey of Space and Time, will generate 20 TB of data every night. Mike Brown said directly: "If someone gave him a suitcase full of money and told him to find Planet Nine, he would build something like the Vera Rubin telescope." This device is capable of detecting objects orders of magnitude dimmer than anything we have had so far. Scientists estimate that the number of known objects in the solar system will increase by as much as a hundredfold thanks to it. If Planet Nine is there, Vera Rubin will find it. If it's the Kuiper Belt disk, Vera Rubin will see its structure. "

"the results delighted everyone, because the material obtained in the laboratory showed a powerful drop in shear wave velocity and a Poisson's ratio perfectly consistent with actual seismic measurements of the Earth's exterior. So, undeniable experimental evidence confirming the superionic nature of the core appeared before us. "
