The Special Theory of Relativity is based on two principles. The first one is, that if you have two objects, then it is not possible to tell which object is moving, and which object is standing still. So someone moving in a spaceship relative to observer, can't say who is actually moving and who is stationary.
But how can this be possible?
If person in spaceship is approaching the speed of light, he will notice how observer ages very fast...and observer will see person in a spaceship as almost frozen in time. Therefore person in a spaceship could actually tell that he's moving, because he'll notice that he's aging slower than things around him...where is my misconception?
