Follow two astronauts into outer space to explore time dilation and Einsteins theory of relativity through the Twin Paradox thought experiment. --On their 20th birthday, identical twin astronauts volunteer for an experiment. Terra will remain on Earth, while Stella will board a spaceship. Stellas ship will travel to visit a star that is 10 light-years away, then return to Earth. As they prepare to part ways, the twins wonder what will happen when theyre reunited. Who will be older?
