NIST scientists calculated that clocks on Mars would be an average of 477 millionths of a second faster than clocks telling ...

Clocks on Mars tick faster by about 477 microseconds each Earth day, a new study suggests. This difference is significantly more than that for our moon, posing potential challenges for future crewed ...

Anyone who steps onto Mars will be crossing a one-way threshold in more ways than one. The physics of getting there and back, ...

The Earth's climate has been changing for millions of years under the influence of the gravity of neighboring planets. A new study has shown that even the small planet Mars has a significant impact on ...

Scientists have found that time passes slightly faster on Mars than on Earth, a difference caused by gravity and orbital motion that could affect future human missions, space navigation systems and ...

While Mars doesn't directly control Earth's climate, its gravity subtly influences our planet's orbit and tilt over vast ...

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

On Earth, knowing the time feels simple. Your phone pings the same second as a GPS satellite and an atomic clock in a lab. Everything is wired together so well that you rarely think about the ...

"A three-body problem is extremely complicated. Now we're dealing with four: the sun, Earth, the moon and Mars. The heavy lifting was more challenging than I initially thought." When you purchase ...

Particles that escaped Earth’s atmosphere accumulated on the lunar surface over billions of years. Here’s what you’ll learn ...

Thanks to Einstein’s relativity, time flows differently on Mars than on Earth. NIST scientists have now nailed down the ...
