If you take two identical radioactive samples, place one on Earth and another on a near-lightspeed spaceship, and compare them some time later, will the one left on Earth have undergone comparatively more radioactive decay than the one on the spaceship?
If the experiment is repeated by leaving one on Earth and another on a planet with the same radius as Earth but made entirely of lead, what, if any, will the difference be?
Finally, how would the radioactive decay of a test source on the surface of Earth and its centre compare?
