It is said that if you have two clocks and you make one go to space at the speed of light while the other stays on earth, the times would change. But the clocks don't know that they are showing time, they just move every second. So how would it work?

If time dilation goes to infinity as an object approaches the speed of light, how do photons experience time, if they move at the speed of light? If photos are physical things, and moving at the speed of light stops time, how do they experience time?

In layman's terms, how is gravity partially or wholly caused by time dilation around a large mass (I understand the reverse, gravity causing time dilation, but read that time dilation may actually be what causes gravity)?
