Alpha centuri...4 light year relative to who?
Hi,
Here it goes.
Suppose it takes 4 light years to get to alpha centuri.
So if I could travel at 99.99999% the speed of light and the people on Earth remains stationary(as in moving very slowly which is << C).
So does my clock shows 4 years when I get to alpha centuri or the clock on the Earth shows 4 years.
I am a high school student so if possible avoid any technical explanation
Thanks
