What exactly does this mean, and how is it possible?

Posted by admin - 28/07/10 at 07:07:05 pm

I found this on wikipedia:

“An observer might take a trip away from the Earth and back at relativistic velocities, with the trip only lasting a few years according to the observer’s own clocks, and return to find that thousands of years had passed on Earth. ”

That’s really weird, yet fascinating, but I have a hard time seeing how that’s possible. How does that work?
