Time passes at different rates that depend on velocity (special relativity) and gravitational potential (general relativity). A given observer might say that two events were simultaneous, while another might say they were not. You have to use the math tools of relativity to reconcile the observations.

Time is not universal. There is no physical law that says it's the same anywhere or everywhere..
