'''Time dilation''' is the ability of time to last longer (dilate) in the presence of strong gravitational forces in accordance with [[Albert Einstein]]'s [[Theory of Relativity]]. Creationist physicists such as [[Dr. John Hartnett]] believe that the [[Earth]] was once contained in a time dilation field, which explains why the earth is only 6,000 years old even though cosmological data (background radiation, supernovae, etc.) set a much older age for the universe. It is believed that this field has since been removed by [[God]], which explains why no time dilation has been experienced in modern times.
Time dilation has also made an appearance in several works of science fiction.
