What do you mean by '_physically_' ? And what do you mean slower .. GPS
clocks run quicker in orbit then when on the earth (as observed from earth)

Sounds like you've gotten something wrong there.

Sorry .. I misread your post (so it was me that got something wrong :))

Yes .. the clock on the satellite is slower when on the earth than when in
orbit (as observed from earth). Of course, within the satellite itself,
there is no change in the clock .. it continues to tick at the same rate.

So .. the question still remains: what do you mean by _physically_? Do you
mean it is not some optical illusion (eg due to transit time of light
signals etc)? Do you mean it is what we measure .. in which case what is
'physical' depends on your frame of reference? Or is there some deeper
meaning to '_phsycally_'?

_Every_ electronic interaction in the universe outside a
proton-neutron physically runs slower in a gravity well, and that
includes every electronic interaction that controls a life cycle
rate. So nothing locally will appear to have changed. But the
rest of the universe is now _physically_ running faster according
to life in the gravity well.

In a 300000 year old universe, how slow do you think everything
would be _physically_ running compared to now?
