According to Einstein's theories then anyone who is moving is actually in their own mini time warp - the time relative to them is actually slowed down, but at the speeds with which we are fimiliar the difference is negligible. When it does get noticed is at the speed of light where time slows down to such a level that if you took a ten year trip at the speed of light then returned to Earth, you will find that in Earth time you have been away for hundreds of years.
Or something like that anyway... |
Not only that, objects moving at relatavistic speeds appear smaller, it's called the Lorentz Contraction.
