Abstract

The article discusses that networked atomic clocks still follow the theory of Einstein's theory of relativity. The theory established that the laws of physics will remain the same for any two observers which are moving at a constant speed and are relative to each other. This symmetry is also called as Lorentz invariance. Dr. Pacome Delva and his team at the Paris Observatory have used strontium clocks to test time dilation between the cities of London, Paris, and Braunschweig.
