One clock over there thinks the time is 6pm, but that clock over there thinks it's 6:01pm. This radio gets the time reported it by both clocks. The reason the satellites give different read-outs is pretty fucking spooky.

Deepseek gets it. It's ready to help simplify things. Here's a way to think of it: time has spread. It is two-dimensional. Rather than merely going forward, it goes outward as well so that the satellites record different times depending on where they fall within the spread
