He asserts that time is relative and unfolds at different rates depending on gravitational influence.

“There are other timelines that are proceeding at different paces than your timeline depending on how fast they're moving in space relative to you and depending on how much gravity they're subjected to. So time is not absolute.”

Being in close proximity to a black hole causes time to pass more slowly for the observer compared to someone farther away.

“if you're really close to a black hole your time ticks way more slowly than everybody else so is that all you need to solve his his question”

Time dilation is a real physical effect that impacts the rate at which all physical processes, including biological ones, occur.

“so when we talk about time flowing cells flowing it's everything slowing”

Hannah Fry explains that gravity causes time to pass more slowly in areas with stronger gravitational pull.

“what gravity is doing is it's bending and warping spaceime. So what this means is that um time travels slower in Greenwich than it does in Boulder.”

General relativity signifies its own breakdown at the singularity, indicating the need for a new theory of gravity.

“I think most of us suspect that the singularity is general relativity signaling its breakdown it's telling us I'm no longer predicting the laws of physics well here and it's telling us that we have to look for something Beyond general relativity to understand the singularity”

The detection of a graviton particle will eventually require a fundamental rethinking of how gravity is understood beyond the geometric model.

“for a lot of people the detection of a graviton will likely necessitate a real rethinking of what of what gravity is”
