If a spaceship housing humans were to travel near a black hole, time would slow down due to the increased gravity. However, with what we currently know about cellular biology and gravity, humans need to stay around 1g to proliferate properly.
Now if the spaceship generates an artificial gravity of 1g aboard to sustain life, would time dilation only occur on the outside of the ship and time would travel at the same rate as it would on Earth?
Not really a "paradox" but a problem with the thought experiment of using a black hole.
