No problem! Here’s the information about the Precision Tests of Time Dilation with Atomic Clocks ⏱

🔹 What Was Tested? • Time dilation, a cornerstone of special relativity, states that time moves slower for objects traveling at high speeds. 🚀🕒 • This was tested using ultra-precise atomic clocks onboard fast-moving planes and satellites.

🔹 Key Experiments 1️⃣ Hafele-Keating Experiment (1971): • Atomic clocks were flown around the world on commercial jets. • Result: Clocks onboard planes differed by ~273 nanoseconds, matching relativity’s predictions. ✈️✅

2️⃣ GPS Satellites: • Atomic clocks onboard satellites move faster than those on Earth by ~38 microseconds/day due to general and special relativity. 🌍📡

🔹 Impact on Physics • These experiments directly confirmed Einstein’s theory and are critical for technologies like GPS navigation, which relies on relativistic corrections. 🌌🔧
