This is a rephrasing of a question I asked earlier with good answers but none that satisfied me.
Right, you are in a spacecraft and you are looking back at your twin on earth with a very large telescope.
Then you travel away from earth at 99% the speed of light. For a few years then come back.
According to relativity you will be younger than your twin. But while you are looking through the telescope you must at some point see your twin aging faster than you, therefore time speed up.
But everybody is telling me both twins are observing each other with time slowed down and I do not understand how.
Please help me.
