Hi all,
I know that this isn't a "flaw" in SR. So, I'm not here claiming to have found an amazing flaw in SR. lol.
I actually read about this flaw I think, and thus, probably read the solution, however, it was some time ago.
So, can anyone enlighten me here please? :)
It's related to time dilation and thus Frame of Reference:
It's said that the time between to objects, which are moving relative to each other changes.
e.g. Person A flies away from person B at 0.9c. For # years. He comes back, and is 10yrs younger than person B.
Okay, fine.. time dilation, sure. :)
However; person B is moving relative to person A, thus, person Bs time should slow down relative to person A, right? (or speed up? (i can't remember which one lol :P)).
So, who's time slows down?
Thanks in advance,
[r.D]
