How fast does time fly?

[Legend]

December 2016 still feels like last month to me. Time goes way way way too fast.

This past year especially has flown by.

Honestly I'd agree with the OP.  Dec. 2016 feels like last month.  I always took it as me getting married and school made it go by pretty fast.

How the shame is 2017 almost over lol.

I still feel like 2014 shouldn't be over.

Yeah its fudgy mental. We're halfway through October and I feel like Summer hasn't happened yet.

Also it depends on how fast you throw the clock

Depends on your relative speed.

Depends on your relative speed.

Also the gravity of your situation

Well if it makes you feel any better, time moves differently on the moon.

I mean technically...

Time moves differently on your head than on your feet because it has an ever slightly weaker gravity.

I remember reading they sent an atomic clock up to the moon and back.  It was out of sync from the clock that they synced it with on earth.

Well that also has the added effect of being moved in a different frame to Earth on the way to the moon. So the difference in the clocks will be from relative speeds as well as different gravity conditions.

I wonder if we'll ever be able to manipulate space-time, to make effects like these much more significant

I don't know about the moon, but it's standard for clocks on satellites. They resync the clocks with a ground station daily to keep them from getting off.

What did I just walk into?

Yes that's what I was saying without the science behind it XD
