“In September 2005 the kids and I took several very accurate cesium atomic clocks from home and parked 5400 feet up Mt Rainier (the volcano near Seattle) for a full two days. The goal was to see if the clocks actually gained time, even if billionths of a second, as predicted by Einstein’s general theory of relativity. Does gravity really alter time and can this weird phenomenon be detected with a family road trip experiment?”
