i dont know where you got that idea from but its not true. according to einstein(i think) time passes by more slowly while you are in motion wheras if youu are completelystill relative to space, you travel at maximum speed thru time.
THE ABOVE ANSWER IS INCORRECT
It is well known time is faster in space, this is due to the fact that "mass" drags onto the 4th dimension (time) because of the earth's mass it slows time down. For example, planets larger than earth = more mass = a bigger hold it has on the 4th dimension = the planet's time would be slower than earths.
As space has a lighter mass the time moves more quickly. As proof you can use GPS satellites, they have clocks on them so they are in the correct place at the correct time so we can navigate down on earth but the clocks always slightly go faster than ours so they have been designed to correct themselves to our time. Speed is also a factor in time and space as it can rip straight through time but it would take me a while to go into its explanation. So in an answer to your question, YES time goes faster in space.

∙ 12y agoIt is not so much in space, but at high speeds. This may happen in space, or on Earth - especially in particle accelerators, where it is regularly observed, when particles move near the speed of light. The more a particle's speed approaches the speed of light, the more the effects of relativity will prevail: time is slower, mass increases, distances decrease in the direction of movement.
The "why" is probably quite difficult to answer, but to know more details, read about the Special Theory of Relativity. You may want to start by reading the Wikipedia article, for example.
Time is not slower or faster in space. Time is relative to the observer. If the observer is moving relative to the event, then time changes by the theory of relativity, but only between the event and the observer. If the observer is traveling along with the event, time will appear to be perfectly normal.

Would light travel faster through space or wind?
It would travel faster through space since there are no particles to get in its way. The wind is an opposing force so it is harder to move faster. The difference between the two would be negligble but specifically, light moves faster through space.
Why does light travel faster through empty space than matter?
It doesn't travel faster through a vacuum. In our Universe there is no such thing as empty space.
Do we can travel faster or near to the speed of sound in space?
Any vehicle (such as a rocket) MUST exceed the 'speed-of-sound' in order to escape the atmosphere (actually much, much faster). The 'speed-of-sound' varies with the thickness of the medium in which it is travelling. At low altitudes (close to sea-level), sound can travel up to 880mph because the air has high density. At high altitude, where the air is 'thinner', sound travels only around 650mph. The escape velocity needed to completely escape the earth's gavitational "well" is around 25,000mph. However, if you only want to reach "space" (orbit the earth), the speed necessary is closer to 6,500mph (7 to 10 times the 'speed-of-sound'). Since we have to go faster than sound just to reach "space", obviously we can (and do) go faster while IN space. The Earth is travelling at about 35,000mph through "space", which means we are all travelling over 40 times faster than sound right now.
How fast does your universe travel through space?
Faster than yours.
Why can you travel faster in space than on land or water?
because in space you dont have to worry about turns and obstacles when in air and water you do
Can you make time go faster in Pokemon emerald?
yes if you are using VBA just Hold the Space Bar if your using a GBA then no.
Why is cooperation and teamwork so important on the space shuttles?
so they can go up 2 space faster
If the earth rotated faster would time go faster?
No.
Which time is faster 8.16 or 8.016?
If you go the same distance in LESS time, you go FASTER.
Can a space shuttle go17500 in the atmosphere?
Yes it can. sometimes it may go faster.
How long will it take to get to the International Space Station?
It takes 2 days. You might think that that's a long time for a space shuttle to go to the space station. Especially when you know that it takes about 2 minutes for the space shuttle to go into space. But here's why: The space station is orbiting the earth, and so will the space shuttle when it goes into space. If it goes faster though, it will fly away from the earth's atmosphere and get lost in outer space. So the Space Shuttle goes slightly faster so it will catch up, but not too fast so that it will fly off into outer space. That's why it takes 2 days.
What is the meaning of a clock that has no hands?
It is a digital display clock. I would guess that it is some sort of joke about man inventing time. Some people say that time is nothing more than a concept invented by man and that it doesn't really exist. Time passes faster when one to outer space. If time exists, why would it go by faster in outer space than it does on the earth???? It means, till the end of time.
How fast can the space shuttle go in space?
It can go a little faster than 18,000 miles per hour. So slow compared to what the universe can throw at it.
What is the physics behind time travel?
Time travels at the speed of light but this speed varies depending on where you are. If you were to be in space, time travels faster but if youre on earth, time travels slower because it has to pass through earth and its bent by it gravity.So to clarify, if you put a clock on a satellite orbiting earth and a clock on the earth, the clock on the satellite would go faster than the one on earth.
Why does time pass faster when your asleep?
When you are asleep time does not pass any faster. Because you are asleep you have no way to tell time so it seems to go faster.
Why does time dilate when traveling close to the speed of light?
the faster you go the slower will be the time According to Einstein, space and time are related, and thus referred to in the scientific community as space-time. The faster an object moves, the quicker time will appear to pass from the perspective of an observer. For example, if you could jump on a beam of light and travel for a year before jumping back off onto Earth, many years will have passed by for the rest of the world, whereas just the one year will have passed for you.
Will your pregnancy go faster the second time around?
No both will have the same time .
