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

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 ...

Scientists have found that time passes slightly faster on Mars than on Earth, a difference caused by gravity and orbital ...

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.

Gravity and motion make time pass faster on Mars than Earth, reshaping navigation, communication, and future crewed missions.
