One Person, One Slice of Cosmic Time, and One Blue World.

To understand stand very complex phenomenon it helps to isolate one fraction, and see just how it works.  That leaves the complex as just extrapolation of the simple realizations.   

This is about time, aging, and gravity and how they are derived when a blue world shows up. SpaceTime is a 3D volume, aging.   To simplify that complexity we can look at one 2D slice of that space, and the cosmic aging rate it has.  

One 2D slice.  One Occupant.

Our 1D occupant, residing in that slice, is aging at 1 second of aging for every 1 second of cosmic time. 1:1.  

One Blue World.  Earth Perhaps? 

When a blue world decides to reside in that slice it centers itself there.  But now our occupant has been offset above the cosmic slice. The radius of the blue world above, where it ages faster.  It is now aging 1.01 to 1.0 of cosmic time.   The occupant, to get back to the cosmic slice, has to try and push the blue ball down at least 1/2 it's diameter to reach the slice. The inertia of the blue ball is too large to overcome.  Where it's center is now is where the occupant wants to be.  That push against the blue ball is gravity.  Persistent downward push. Somewhat pointless. 

Now extrapolate.  Every dust mote, rain drop, dead leaf, person or beast, is trying to get back to their cosmic aging slice. Ninety degrees down from wherever they are on the blue world. That try is gravity. All slices of cosmic time meet at the center of the blue world. 

The argument and the mistake.  Classic assumptions envision digging down into the blue world would prove no point on a slice of cosmic time can be there. The mistake is that we aren't aiming for the center.  We are trying to move the world out of our way to get down to where it's center was.  

There is one other way to change Aging time against Cosmic time. You can float free in spacetime and be 1:1 with aging.   But speed up to 0.5:1 where time moves relatively faster than aging. Aging slows down as you go faster. 

Any direction, away from out 1D position

Notice I changed the aging side and not the cosmic time side.  Cosmic time is a fixed value.  Aging is what varies depending on where you are (on a blue world or not) and/or how fast you are moving. 

Please leave a comment if there is anything unclear about this very simple analogy.
