And those 'Big Numbers' would be for things like trying to push ones rocket ship up to light speed . . . Or what happens if one tries to penetrate the event horizon of a black hole, right?

Or maybe even 'what happens inside the particle accelerator stays inside the particle accelerator' (I hope).

Am I right in thinking that scientific experiments have demonstrated that time passes at a slightly different rate outside the earths gravity well?

So much science . . . so much math . . .

Re: “The above definition of inertia was figured out a long long time ago. And, that definition underpins a LOT of the engineering techniques and technologies used over centuries.”
Newton's explanations ruled . . . until a guy named Einstein upended them.

Actually, Newton's work was known to be wrong long before Einstein, but nobody knew why. Today, Newton's discoveries are usually good enough for engineers. You have to be dealing with really big numbers before their shortcomings much matter.
