Hi, from what I understand about the twin paradox, Is the resolution essentially that since the traveling twin undergoes acceleration when the ship reverses direction, so since the velocity of the twin is no longer constant, the inertial reference frames are no longer valid? Then does that also means that the twins are aging at the same rate only until the brother undergoes acceleration?
And I was also thinking about spacetime. Since time is a dimension, one brother is lying in a relatively constant distance through time, but the other brother is traveling much farther distance, so time must have slowed for him since he is traveling through two dimensions (space and time) ?
