The reason it has taken so long is due to the reboot time of the GP2X

:p
naw-its all because of the 7 minute Bootup of WWE Smackdown on our brand new Psp-Full Speed Emulator :ph34r:

Prove it at

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation

And for that experiment:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hafele-Keating_experiment

Not only velocity does affect the time but also the gravitional fields too.

It's really crazy stuff so was the Earth being a globe once... :)
Thank you. You saved me having to dig upmore information. Im not too sure how the force of gravitational pull does effect the passage time though. Ill have to read up on that.

why will you have to read up on that? what possible use can it be?

That doesnt prove it, it mearly shows a theory.

Oh puh lease.
It's been proved so many times. Just because you can't see it with your eyes does not mean that it has not been proved scientifically.

Not entirely. Its possible that the rest of the world is at a constant speed much slower than that of craig and guyfawkes. Therefore craig and guyfawkes to themselves appear normal but to others appear to be moving at a snailes pace and to them only 22 hours has passed on 5 days. There you fo mr logic man!


ROFL, HAHA Science fiction rules, the winner is "Time Machine2X", I sent myself back in Time and got My GP2X shipped to myself last year :D
Its not science fiction its fact :p also i made a flash movie illustating ED using a time machine to ship 2x's.

Er, wouldn't that mean, to an ubiased outside observer, that Craig and Guyfawkes would move much more quickly than as is normal? It would only appear to them that we are moving slowly, since the rest of the world is moving more slowly.

Woops logic. Foiled again.


March 9th. Be there.
Sorry you idiot. As velocity increase the passing of time decreases. Upto C which in theory matter cannot achieve or may be converted to energy upon the attainment of a velocity of C. they sent an atomic clock round the worl in a plane continually moving for a week then when they brought it back it was a minute fraction ofa second slower than the syncronised one at the earths normal velocity to prove this.

next you'll be telling me the earth is a sphere and the sun is at the centre of the universe

Please, no matter who made this, add support for Pump it Up! and the "controllers" (via powered USB ;) ), they should be available from stepmania.... nothing would be more awesome than this!!!!
What's Pump It Up!? Another dance game? For now, Beat2X supports its own format, but sooner or later, I hope I can add support for StepMania format as well.

Actually, it's fairly simple. If nothing changed, would time be stopped?

Thank you. You saved me having to dig upmore information. Im not too sure how the force of gravitational pull does effect the passage time though. Ill have to read up on that.

relativity is one of the best theories we have in terms of evidence. along with evolution. they're both so important to the way science is done today that without them everything pretty much falls apart. it's like a puzzle, and those are very central pieces.

as for gravitational fields affecting space-time, check out einstein's general theory of relativity. he shows that there is no difference between regular acceleration and acceleration due to gravity and that both affect space-time.

in special relativity, einstein only showed that velocity affects space-time. but once the two people match each other's velocity, everything evens out again. with general relativity, he introduces effects due to acceleration. he also links this with gravity...

for instance, say you're in an elevator box. if the box was accelerating upwards at 9.8 m/s, you'd just assume that was earth's gravity. for any one small enough point on the sphere, there is a way to accelerate that is the same as gravity. so gravity really is just acceleration.

also note that this was a great discovery since from the time of newton (newton proposed the law of universal gravitation), no one knew what gravity WAS (including newton). it was almost magical in that it seems to have no cause yet we feel its effects. but einstein did away with gravity completely...regular old acceleration is much less "magical" than gravity.

It shows a practical experiment showing the desired result was attained. Also I read up on it because i like ot know things. It would be so cool to know everything so I will learn it all one peiece at a time :p Also as i am not doing A level physics I like to learn physics myself and am seriously considereding doing sixth form a second time just for physics.
