Notice that the change fromDaveC426913 said:Here's a simple one.
It's overly simplified because it illustrates infinite acceleration. (the traveling twin's path is not curved, as it would be with realistic acceleration).
That's important, because realistic acceleration means that in reality, the red and blue lines will not intersect at the midpoint - so there will be no "jump" from blue to red - it is smooth, if rapid.
