Mass changes how time passes near it, versus how it passes far from it. Test objects are still seen to speed up as they fall towards massive objects. Light suffers "Shapiro time delay" when its path includes travelling through space that is near a massive body. So I guess the full answer requires you to tell us who is deciding what is slowing down, and how / where you are measuring relative to.
No, it is not possible to slow down the speed of light in a vacuum.
In empty space, an electromagnetic wave can only travel at one speed - the speed of light.In empty space, an electromagnetic wave can only travel at one speed - the speed of light.In empty space, an electromagnetic wave can only travel at one speed - the speed of light.In empty space, an electromagnetic wave can only travel at one speed - the speed of light.
In space, there is no air resistance to slow down spacecraft traveling at constant velocity. Additionally, spacecraft can use thrusters or gravitational assists to adjust their speed if needed. The laws of physics allow spacecraft to maintain their speed in the vacuum of space.
Objects in space travel at the same speed because there is no air resistance or friction to slow them down. Once an object is in motion in space, it will continue moving at a constant speed unless acted upon by an external force.
Light travels faster through space because it encounters fewer obstacles and medium to slow it down, unlike through a window where it can be refracted or absorbed by the materials in the window, which can slow down its speed.

If it is facing in the opposite direction of travel it will slow down.
The shuttle uses the atmosphere to slow itself down from orbital speed.
It dosent unless you are traveling the speed of light it slow's down. The sun going down isnt time.
I think you mean slow down and speed up. slow down =slow, speed up=fast
No, it is not possible to slow down the speed of light in a vacuum.
Isaac Newton's Theories say that for every force going one way, there is one going the opposite direction. So for example you were travelling forwards through space at a speed of 500 MPH, then if you threw an object forwards (in front of you) you would slow down slightly. Mass affects this because the more mass that the object you throw has, the more you will slow down. Calum, 12

Time is relative to the speed of the observer and the faster an observer travels at the slower time will appear for him. So time slows down with speed not with distance.
slow down
The object that is moving at a constant speed will slow down. Its new velocity will be determined by the original constant speed along with the new combined mass of the moving object and the additional "large mass."
