Time dilation, brought about by the relativistic expansion of space, has resulted in the observed slowing of 'clocks' in the early universe.
Time has been observed passing more slowly in quasars in the early universe.
A quasar is powered by an accreting supermassive black hole at the heart of an extremely active galaxy.
Because the accretion disk around the black hole is relatively small, fluctuations in the light emitted by the quasar can take place in just days.
This makes them easier to track.
