Slower than the time we measure here on Earth, or outside Earth/solar system/galaxy. They are very minor time dilation differences between those cases.

Of course you can compare different time periods. When the twin from twin paradox returns younger to Earth, you can say time ran slower for him in the past.
We are actually seeing the past (of those quasars) unfold in slower time right now.
- kazinator 3y agoOK, so the quasars are the observable phenomenon. So, question: any of this mean we have to adjust our estimate of the age of the universe?
