I'm getting conflicting statements when it comes to time dilation due to gravity. Some sites say time slows down near the source of gravity and some say it's faster. Can anyone she'd some light on this?

Can you give an example of a site that says that gravity causes time to speed up? I have never seen anyone make that claim, only the opposite. – Cuspy Code Apr 28 '18 at 17:12

According to Stephen Hawking, time slows down in a black hole. – Zane Scheepers Apr 28 '18 at 19:03

Yes, and that is consistent with the claim that time slows down in a strong gravitational field. But where did you find the opposite claim? – Cuspy Code Apr 28 '18 at 19:53
