[QUOTE="Fringan.se, post: 28414, member: 619"] [b]Re: Time travel, Multiverse, Relativity & Apollo[/b] At really high speeds, near the speed of light, time slows down. That would mean that if an astronaut flew the 4 light years to our nearest star (not couting our own sun) and back, people here on earth would be 8 years older when he got back since it took him 8 years to travel that disctance. The astronaut though, for him time would have slowed down and he might just have aged 3 or 4 years. His clocks and computer times would all show he had been gone shorter than the 8 years people experienced back on earth. This isnt because the spaceships speed warps time or anything like that. This is strange to us because we think of time as something constant when its not. Time and space are _relative_. [/QUOTE]
