Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Time dilation is a scientific concept related to Relativity which states, basically, that for an observer onboard a spaceship travelling at a certain speed any speed at all (though only noticeable at appreciable fractions of the speed of light) with respect to Earth (or any inertial reference frame of your choice), time passes more slowly than it would for an observer on Earth. When near-lightspeed travel becomes involved, the effects become quite drastic: A person might go on a space journey that seems to him to last one year and, on returning, find that 10 years have passed on Earth. This is sometimes extrapolated by science fiction authors to apply to FTL Travel as well, though this does not make much sense physically. |
