Abstract
There has lately been an unusual amount of interest in a relativistic phenomenon which has come to be called the clock paradox. It may be simply stated in the following way. If a man were to leave the earth on a powered space ship for an extended trip into space, he would find upon returning to earth that he was younger than he would have been if he had remained on earth.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
