Even a millimetre seems insignificant, and even such a small distance can drastically affect time. In Einstein’s general relativity theory of gravity, clocks tick faster as they are distanced from Earth or another massive object (SN: 10/4/15).

In a millimetre-sized sample of atoms, an incredibly sensitive atomic clock has detected this speedup, showing that it extends over a more negligible height difference than ever before. Researchers report on September 24 at arXiv.org that time moved slightly faster at the top of the sample than at the bottom. A theoretical…
