Research conducted by two physicists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the US reveals that ...

On average, Martian time ticks roughly 477 millionths of a second faster than terrestrial clocks per Earth day. But the Red ...

Clocks on Mars tick faster by about 477 microseconds each Earth day, a new study suggests. This difference is significantly ...

Physicists found that clocks on Mars will tick 477 microseconds (millionths of a second) faster than on Earth per day, on ...

Even worse, the orbit of Mars is elliptical (think of a slight oval rather than a perfect circle), which means that sometimes ...

Time moves differently on Mars. NIST physicts recently calculated exactly how fast each second passes on Mars. And if humans want to explore the solar system, every microsecond counts.

Summary: Time doesn’t flow uniformly across the solar system, and new research reveals just how differently it unfolds on Mars compared with Earth. By tracing subtle gravitational and orbital ...

Despite its dry, dusty surface and thinner atmosphere, Mars may have more in common with Earth than scientists previously thought. In a new study, researchers at the University of Rochester—including ...

On Earth, telling time is easy. Our clocks are synchronized using atomic clocks, GPS satellites, and fast communication networks. But according to Einstein’s theory of relativity, time doesn’t pass ...

On Earth, knowing the time feels simple. Your phone pings the same second as a GPS satellite and an atomic clock in a lab.

For decades, climate science has focused on what happens on Earth and in our atmosphere, but new research suggests our planet’s long term rhythms are also being nudged by a neighbor. Scientists now ...
