This doesn’t mean you would know it was slower if you were there at the time. A second would still feel like a second. But, relative to us, it was five times slower.

I can’t say I can truly wrap my mind around this one, but then again that’s exactly why I love astrophysics news like this.
For me I understand that because matter was much more condensed, space was more warped, therefore time flew slower (relative to how it flows right now)
