Time & gravity

Earth, Air, Metal, Fire and Water are the five elements.
Time is not an element.
Time is a subjective perception.
Two people standing side by side perceive time differently.
Women's bodies have a twenty eight day cycle, men a thirty five day cycle.
Time passes, as a measure of the Earth's spin and orbit around the Sun,
and the Moon's orbit around the Earth ( and Sun).
There are sundials which cast a shadow.
There are devices which work at a predictable rate
to measure time.
Gears in older watches and clocks spin at a predictable rate,
Timing chips in modern watches and clocks count at a predictable rate.
Atomic clocks count atomic decay at a known rate.
All operate at known rates, none measure per se.
Scientists claim time is a dimension.
The fourth dimension.
What defines a dimension?
The gravity of the Sun, its' light and heat affect us.
The gravity of the Moon and its' reflected sunlight affect us.
A cutaway view of the Earth reveals the sources of Earthly gravity.
Newtonian Gravity.
In reference to time a day on Mars is longer,
A season longer, a year longer,
due to Mars' orbit being further from the Sun.
Why isn't gravity the fourth dimension?
The first three dimensions deal with objects,
shouldn't the fourth?
Perhaps the movement of an object over time would constitute the fifth dimension...
Gravity is a physical force, one that can be measured.
One can perceive the physical effects of gravity.
The senses reveal gravity.
What are the influences that contribute to gravity's force?
The sun, the Earth, The Moon,
The planets nearby in our solar system,
nearby constellations,
(Astrology was respected long before recorded history),
the 100 million stars constituting the Milky Way, our Galaxy.
All pull and push on us.
Galileo's Gravity listed the Sun as the primary source in our solar system
A telescope reveals Galileo's proof,
The naked eye sees constellations,
a time-lapse camera defines the Milky Way in detail for our eyes,
certain telescopes offer visions beyond the Milky Way.
Hubble photographed deep space with thousands of galaxies in view,
A view of infinity.
Time is misperceived.
Gravity is rarely perceived.
