Struggling to understand time?

It is a loop. Technically there is no such thing as time.

''Poppy cock'', you are clearly mistaken and trying to materialise time by the representation of time in the form of the Caesium cycles.

Admittedly I have no formal ''education'', but that does not inhibit my ability to consider ''things''.

There is clearly magnetic fields involved inside the Caesium clock, it is not hard to consider the possible affects of the Earths magnetic field on the field of the magnets in the clock. Clearly you do not understand magnetic field polarity and compass needles which tend to ''point'' a certain direction.

So where do you think compass needles 'point' ?

What a strange question, the compass needles north magnetic polarity ''points'' to the magnetic south polarity field ''of'' the Earths North pole which I think everyone knows.

Just as I expected a schoolboy answer. The 'Earths North pole' has nothing to do with it.

What? I know the Earths north pole has nothing to do with it, I was stating a ''rough'' direction that is why I put ''to'', the Earths magnetic pole axis moves about, the longitude and latitude position is a variable over time.
The compass needle ''points'' to where ever the magnetic south is , pfff.

If the poles reversed, the compass needle would ''point'' the opposite direction .

Are you satisfied I know how magnetism works?

Added - I will even add just to assure you that I know magnetism, like wise polarities repel and opposite polarities attract,

Ok congrats we have established caesium isn't time. Any other revelations?
Just because you have a gripe against general relativity does not mean it does not have empirical evidence supporting it. Thats how science works, its not what you THINK its what you KNOW.

I was hoping you would at least have described how the Earth's magnetic field creates this affect.

Let me leave you with this for a while,

In my opinion the electron is not attached to a Proton or attracted to a Proton, if that was the case the electron would be ''firmly'' fixed in the center of the Proton (there would be no electron ''shell''.

It IS attracted to the proton, and the reason it does not spiral into the nucleus was solved in the 1920s. The total energy between electron and nucleus is constant. As the electron moves closer the kinetic energy increases towards infinity but potential energy decreases towards negative infinity. So the atom balances itself out by keeping the electron at the Bohr radius.
But it is wrong to consider the electron as a particle, it is more a cloud of probability with an indeterminacy position obeying Heisenberg's uncertainty principle

Well! I can't be correct on everything, My assumption with atoms on an elementary level is that all Quarks have to be attracted to all Quarks?

After several years of harsh comments and finding ones own mind, the solution came to me over time rather than a sudden enlightenment. Einstein would have appreciated that time was like a ''rod'' , continuous with no spacing between the next increment.
A constant, that any attempt of measurement no matter how infinitesimally small or whatever the speed of measurement , would become an instantaneous increment of the length of history.
One could believe that one could travel faster than time, but one would be mistaken because time is always with the observer in the instance and can never be overtook, time can only be left behind in the form of history no matter what what the velocity of the observer is.
We simply can not define a constant of time then ignore its precedence altering the perspective of the constant by inferring time dilation ''illusions'' that do not exist in the state of reality.

I'm afraid I cannot be of help as I don't understand your reasoning, but your argument seems to be grounded in personal beliefs rather than experiments as you have made no reference to empirical observations. In fact, you prefer not only to ignore the theoretical reasoning leading to the time-dilation conclusion, but also the experimental evidence supporting it.

This is not the correct forum for the proposal and consideration of alternative physics, no matter how "objective" you consider it to be.

This is a forum for learning and study of physical theories that have been accepted by the majority.

A clock is not time. It's a tool used to measure time caused by a moving object. So a clock and an object are running,time is not. Time itself can't run and has no direction.
