Re: Is time dilation real?

Ahh now i understand what jgreenfield was saying.

Ok but here i now have a problem. If gravity can focus light one would
assume that light aproaching a dense mass with a large gravity field
would also be accelerated and on passing the outer edge of the mass
decelerate. If the light is accelerated and decelerates before and
after passing massive object/s
would it return to the speed or is the deviation from its original
course (turn velocity) replacing forward velocity effectivly leaving
the orignal speed unchaged?
