Sorry .. I misread your post (so it was me that got something wrong :))

Yes .. the clock on the satellite is slower when on the earth than when in 
orbit (as observed from earth).  Of course, within the satellite itself, 
there is no change in the clock .. it continues to tick at the same rate.

So .. the question still remains: what do you mean by _physically_?  Do you 
mean it is not some optical illusion (eg due to transit time of light 
signals etc)?  Do you mean it is what we measure .. in which case what is 
'physical' depends on your frame of reference?  Or is there some deeper 
meaning to '_phsycally_'?
