They say when someone travels at the speed of light, they age slower
than the people back on Earth. Returning to earth is virtually travelling
forward in time for them, since they are younger (in other words, have aged less) than
the people left behind on Earth. People without kids are like that, moving
at the speed of light, so that when they land after being away for a year
or two, they are surprised to find the children and the parents have aged
so much ("She's four already?!), while they have aged hardly at
all. |
