    Wait why - Aren’t the clocks from Gps satellites only in sync with our clocks when they reach their defined speed and distance to earth’s core? Isn’t this related to the curvature of spacetime? Genuine question

      There’s a new theory that time is only a side-effect of the warping of space and that they are not one and the same. Wouldn’t change the result but has heavy implications on the larger scale.
