- rabidrat 6y agoPower is by definition per unit time.
- sgt101 6y agoAlthough these bursts are coming from a place where time is rather more spread out than it is here.
- solarengineer 6y agoWhat does that mean!? Might a millisecond there last as long as a few of our Earth seconds? What is this concept called ( for me to read up on it)?
- sgt101 6y agoI think this is a good place to have a look : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_time_dilation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_time_dilation My assumption is that the place that this burst is coming from is near a very large, very dense mass.
