Hurray for Space-time vortex from NASA!

[:| Hi]

So, this explains all these flying policeboxes

Pretty cool stuff, eh?

So what's the news? I mean, that there is something like space-time and that heavy bodies deform it has been known for decades.

Time travel and Hyperdrive generators=HERE WE COME

The GPS satellite on-board clock has proven it years ago.

Does this mean that life in Uranus is longer? I mean if a guy in Uranus asked as to wait for one minute (given there is no distance barrier), that could mean more than one minute on earth, since their planet is heavier than earth?

I doubt you'd want a guy to wait on Uranus.

Interesting point ZooMotorPool, does a creature create its own life expandacy?

Yeah, but that's the only solid planet heavier than earth that i could think of, other than Neptune.

But both of those are not solid

[Zoologic]

At least Uranus and Neptune have more ice than Jupiter or Saturn although Jupiter probably is the most solid one. But the term "gas giants" always crossed my thoughts, so let's pretend they are in a spaceship, floating in any of those planets' atmosphere.

Anyway, yeah, pertaining to my question: does it really bend the time-space continuum so much that we can actually see some observable difference?

No. The effect is very small and Uranus is just 14.5 times heavier than Earth, so that won't do.
As with satellites you are talking about someting like nano-seconds.
