I recommend checking out General and Special Relativity. Time is relative and it has some interesting effects. Even GPS has to account for the difference in rates on the surface and in orbit, although at that scale it's only about 7 microseconds difference a day. It gets a lot more extreme when you start taking into consideration things like neutron stars and black holes.
