Time Dilation or a Change in in the Clock's Inertial Mass?

Time Dilation or Variable Inertial Mass??
The mass of a body of matter is an indication of the energy level the body is at relative to space. A certain body of matter, for example, could have a large or small inertial mass depending on its energy level relative to space ("space energy level"). We can see from this example that inertial mass of a body is not a static condition, it does vary as conditions change. No matter how fast a body travels, relative to other bodies, it does not move relative to space, only its inertial mass changes.
A body's "Space Energy Level", determines the mass of the body. An astronaut traveling in a rocket at 1/2 the speed of light would have a much larger inertial mass then the same astronaut traveling in a rocket traveling at 1/4 the speed of light. The "inertial requirement of space" would require a greater force be exerted to accelerate the astronaut in any direction. His inertial mass would be greater even though the amount of matter in his body is exactly the same. The astronaut's body simply rose to a higher energy level in space.
We can see from this example that inertial mass of a body is not a static condition, it does vary as conditions change. No matter how fast a body travels, relative to other bodies, it does not move relative to space, only its inertial mass changes.
Scientists sometime confuse this change of inertial mass with time dilation. "By synchronizing two atomic clocks, then flying one for extended amounts of time in an airplane and comparing its time reading with the stationary clock, scientists have discovered a dilation of a few millionths of a second for the airborne clock."
They thought they had witnessed time dilation - actually it was the inertial mass of the airplane's clock that changed its measurement of time - not time itself.
Actually what had happened was that the acceleration of the plane throughout the flight had raised the inertial mass of the clock in the airplane very slightly causing the discrepency in the synchronization of the clocks. They had in effect, witnessed an experiment using the absolute frame reference of the airborne clock's, space energy level. The acceleration of the airplane had affected its inertial mass, relative to absolute space.

14. The Finite Universe - 157
It is the "Laws of Nature", the phenomena (inertia, gravity, electro magnetic emission) etc. that creates space and determines the size and personality of the Universe. Where the laws end - the universe ends (whether it is expanding or not).
15. Inertia, A Requirement of Space. - 161
The Law of Inertia creates (inertial) mass and therefore gravity also, since inertial mass determines the strength of gravitational power a body will possess.
16. The Michelson-Morley Experiment - 165
Space is a single entity from one end of the universe to the other. Matter can move about the Universe relative to other matter but cannot move relative to space itself.
17. The Falling Galaxies - 171
The Super Attractive Force is the primary source of all energy in the Universe. Located at the boundary of the Universe all Galaxies are falling toward it, powered by the 5th force. The cosmologist currently account for the accelerating galaxies by creating "dark energy".
18. Weight, Its Relation with Inertia and Gravity - 177
This chapter explores the nature and intricate relationship of Inertia, Gravity, Inertial Mass and Weight
