On august 21 2017 a solar eclipse will sweep USA from coast to coast. A
lifetime opportunity to do coordinated experiments to check this or that. One
of the questions that doesn't have a final answer yet is whether or not solar
eclipses could affect the flow of time. They exist conflicting reports:
Negative: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v402/n6763/full/402749a0.html
Positive: http://home.t01.itscom.net/allais/blackprior/zhou/zhou-1.pdf
http://home.t01.itscom.net/allais/blackprior/zhou/zhou-2.pdfPersonally I
believe that the positive results were due to spurious responses of the atomic
clocks to something else than gravity, or the clocks failed for some reason
(e.g. jumping crystals then steered), or lower quality clocks had been sold to
China. Anyway the recorded data do show an anomaly.As far as I know, no atomic
clock tests are planned anywhere for that circumstance, but sincerely I don't
believe this is the truth.Maybe the US time-nuts community, using its plenty
of atomic clocks, could give the final answer doing tests during the above
mentioned eclipse.US time-nuts, what about the idea of doing yourselves a large
scale coordinated test? Or do you actually believe that this question is
already definitively closed?(Even discovering that atomic clocks might respond
to someting else than gravity would be of great interest).Antonio I8IOV
