Relativity question:
Hypothetically if a person travels at just under the speed of light in a
space ship to a star 10 light years away
does it seem to take the full 10 years to get there for the person doing the
traveling?
Does time seem to pass more quickly while traveling at close to C?
If so what would a 10 light year journey seem like in duration? a few weeks?
Or a few seconds?
Thanks in advance.
