Suppose we synchronize two atomic clocks at a point at 45° south latitude, and then move one clock directly north to the earth’s equator and the other directly south to the south pole, where they remain for some years in climate-controlled enclosures that keep them at the same temperature and humidity. We then reunite the clocks at the origin point and compare them again. Which (if either) has registered a shorter time between the synchronization and comparison events?

A. The clock at the equator B. The clock at the south pole C. Both clocks read the same time
