this rotating light on the event horizon would be true if gravity would not delay the time.
I don't have any paper on this right now but the point is, bigger mass - slower time flow compared to space without any mass.
In this case, where the ship comes closer to the mass, the electrons move slower radiating longer EM waves.
Finally if it passes the event horizon, for the observer outside the time is frozen for the ship.
This means also no radiation comes from the ship, no light, nothing.
how exactly is time defined. Is time an inherent physical property of individual particles?
Entschuldigen Sie bitte. Ich habe ein wenige verwirrung.

Once again I don't have a problem with you questioning a source, but I can find more saying the same thing.
However once again you have failed to post a source which, according to you, is more accurate, and this I do have a problem with.
If I was pointing out a bad source I'd provide a better one.
if you want a source,
start with any accurate einstein relativity book.
or how about his actual papers if you can read german.
again anything i say can be found on any public publishing.
again start at,
arxiv. since you do not want to do the effort,
i'll post the link for you.
arxiv.org...
they're easily accessible. just look.
there's also a nasa public publishing,
ntrs.nasa.gov...
not only that but neurology and biology has public publishing.
SNIP!

The only reason light traveling from point A to point B, of any equal straight line from point A to point B distance, would take longer than the speed of light, is if the space from point A to point B it was traveling in was curved. But in this situation, you want to say the time slows down? Instead of, 'it takes longer because the space is curved'.
The phenomenon of time dilation is a strange yet experimentally confirmed effect of relativity theory. One of its implications is that events occurring in distant parts of the universe should appear to occur more slowly than events located closer to us. For example, when observing supernovae, scientists have found that distant explosions seem to fade more slowly than the quickly-fading nearby supernovae.
The effect can be explained because (1) the speed of light is a constant (independent of how fast a light source is moving toward or away from an observer) and (2) the universe is expanding at an accelerating rate, which causes light from distant objects to redshift (i.e. the wavelengths to become longer) in relation to how far away the objects are from observers on Earth. In other words, as space expands, the interval between light pulses also lengthens. Since expansion occurs throughout the universe, it seems that time dilation should be a property of the universe that holds true everywhere, regardless of the specific object or event being observed. However, a new study has found that this doesn’t seem to be the case - quasars, it seems, give off light pulses at the same rate no matter their distance from the Earth, without a hint of time dilation.
This quasar conundrum doesn’t seem to have an obvious explanation, although Hawkins has a few ideas. For some background, quasars are extreme objects in many ways: they are the most luminous and energetic objects known in the universe, and also one of the most distant (and thus, oldest) known objects. Officially called “quasi-stellar radio sources,” quasars are dense regions surrounding the central supermassive black holes in the centers of massive galaxies. They feed off an accretion disc that surrounds each black hole, which powers the quasars’ extreme luminosity and makes them visible to Earth.

and this is the try to explain what Bose-Einstein condensate is
so basically if all atoms in one volume of matter act as if it was just one single atom you get the 5th state of matter, Bose-Einstein Condensate.

But, to light, which is somehow coupled to the gravity field, it forces it to not travel the shortest straight line, but it forces it to travel this black hole, windy road path.
The difference between the 2 points is still 100 yards, in a geometrically true sense. If you were a ghost like God, and could take a measuring stick, and measure the straightest line between the 2 points, they would always be 100 yards.
Hey, the only reason they say 'time slows down' is because the existence of curved space in and near a black hole.
Lol. All of you are topsy turvy just as the MS is.

Hope this will open the eyes of all that embrace gr and think that space is curved or bent.

Yes, but isn't it true that this "windy road path" is actually a straight line through space, BUT space itself has been made to be winding?
As you view that winding path of space locally (i.e., from that winding path), the path would be straight.
A (rough) analogy would be that if I created a straight and level path around the Earth, always making sure that every meter along that path remained level relative to the earth (using a spirit level), that path would actually form a ring around the earth -- even though the spirit level told me it was level. It would be level compared to the Earth and Earth's gravity, but not level from an observer outside the earth.
Please be aware -- I'm not comparing the gravity well of the Earth to a black hole; not at all. This is simply a very rough analogy of local point-of-reference compared to an outside point-of-reference.
