Well, that's the point of the spaceship. See, if you can get going really fast, and I mean close to the speed of light, time will actually slow down. It's called time dilation, and it happens, for lack of a better layman's explanation, because you are actually catching up with time. So if we were born at the same time, and then I was put in a spaceship moving .99 of the speed of light for awhile, when I came back you'd be older than me.

![]() All this writing about fusion is bringing out the physics geek in me. I remember I did a project about time dilation when I was in middle school. Let me tell you, it is really difficult to explain special relativity to a bunch of googly-eyed girls and fart-happy boys. ![]() |

I have 8 inches of global warming out my window. Ugh. |

I think mine is from the weather, but undoubtedly it isn't helped by the black Lab with OCD. She has her favourite toy and of course it squeaks...WEEEEEEEET.

I just went on that religious forum....at first I was quite bored, lots of philosophy going on which just brings on an automatic blank look to me. But then someone mentioned atheists living in tiny boxes, so I just had to respond. I think I may have to avoid that forum or there will be a witch hunt for me.
