    I'll clean it up to trim out the calculation.

    Now someone calculate how much of the time dilation disparity is due to gravity and how much due to velocity.
    The time dilation disparity due to velocity is 5 seconds every 100 billion seconds.
    Roughly 1 second every 633.8 years.
    Which is ~4.3 microseconds per day of the total discrepancy (66 µs/day),
    leaving ~61.7 µs/day due to gravity.
