It cannot. Extremely massive objects can substantially slow the rate of decay for other, proximate objects; this effect giving the illusion of forward time travel. Time is of course linear (being only a mental construct. And space is never curved.

Gravity, gravity bends time.

@PromiseMeEverything I wasn't aware that space-time was a term, I thought the two parts were independently affected.

@SW-User As far as we can tell there is a link. I'm not a hundred percent convinced.
Mass generates gravity, which bends space... time pretends to follow along but really has its eye on the universe next door.
