time is not relative...
everyone says that if you travel at the speed of light then time for you slows down..
I don't think it does..
if i travelled away from the earth for one year at the speed of light and was observing the earth as i travelled, it would appear as though time stood still on earth as I would be traveling at the same speed as the light from it was traveling ( so I'd be looking at a "still" from a given moment rather than a movie ).
now when I stopped the earth would appear to re-start is't movements etc but be a year behind.
when I then head back at the speed of light for another year, I would be crashing into the light from earth so it would appear to be speeding up.
when I arrive back 2 years will have passsed for both me and the earth surely?
