Re: Can we see the twin dying?

1) I don't remember, is there time dilation in orbitals instead of
linear motion, I think so and they measured the muon's time dilation
in a synchrotron?

2) As well, through light communication which travels between two
inertial frames, can one twin see the other twin dying (since one aged
more than the other)?

That's immaterial. If his brother died he could see it regardless of
time dilation, that is, if he had a powerful enough telescope. A digit
image recording the event would probably be easier to intercept, or
even a wireless e-mail explaining the details.
