Abstract
- The article focuses on confirmation of time dilation by atomic clock predicted by theory of general relativity by physicist Albert Einstein and mentions inability of physicists to unite quantum mechanics. Topics discussed include frequency of radiation emitted when electrons detect gravitational effects, frequency of oscillations caused by gravity of the Earth, and Global Positioning System (GPS) improvement.
