hi I was thinking about the speed of light and Albert Einstein's theory of relativity. Now im not really into books and stuff and i go to an art school so this is totally out of my rage.But ill give it a shot .So lets assume that a space ship is going from point A to point B and the distance between is 1 year light.So the ship has to go at the speed of light to make it for one year to point B!! but since the theory don't allow the ship to go at the peed of the light because x factor ,,the ship will be going 70% the speed of light and it should be able to get to point B for little over a year but as the theory says ;time passes faster on earth than the space ship which is traveling at 70% the speed of light .I don't have the skills to figure it out how many years have passed on earth but a guess is 10 years.now imagine we can see the ship for all the distance it did and the ob vies answer is that we see the ship going 10 times slower than the speed of light . So what do u think????
