So would not any of it changes of states/energy levels be subject to gravity? Especially around objects whose masses are of astrnomical scales? Thanks, C.G.

Frame where the observer is not moving with respect to the cesium 133 atoms, i.e., the laboratory. And from the principle of relativity the laboratory can be anywhere in the universe. > 2) "celsium 133 atom" has mass. So would not any of it changes of > states/energy levels be subject to gravity?

Matter and light move with absolute motion through the unmarked space frame with light at the limit. They also move relative to each other. The closing velocity is the real truth behind matter and enegy's motion in the universe. Mitch Raemsch

The observation on black hole masses > suggests otherwise. You are starting with the assumption that that black holes exist. You seem to be under the impression objects can pass through an event horizon. At an 'event horizon' the rate of flow of time is zero. Everything stops. This is impossible. You seem to be avoiding the impossibility of black holes by pretending you can just pass through an event horizon as if it isn't there. Just outside the event horizon of the black hole time is flowing infinitely slowly. I accept that galaxies have massive objects that are operating at incredibly slow rates of speed. They are very very very gray objects. Not black. Mathal
