One camera is on board the rocket and the other is on earth. If they both play slow then they will have aged the same. Mitch Raemsch

Perhaps they have. Let's see: << Einstein's relativity principle states that: All inertial frames are totally equivalent for the performance of all physical experiments. In other words, it is impossible to perform a physical experiment which differentiates in any fundamental sense between different inertial frames. By definition, Newton's laws of motion take the same form in all inertial frames. Einstein generalized[1] this result in his special theory of relativity by asserting that all laws of physics take the same form in all inertial frames. >> http://farside.ph.utexas.edu/teaching/em/lectures/node108.html [1]<< the four-dimensional space-time continuum of the theory of relativity, in its most essential formal properties, shows a pronounced relationship to the three-dimensional continuum of Euclidean geometrical space. In order to give due prominence to this relationship, however, we must replace the usual time co-ordinate t by an imaginary magnitude sqrt(-1) ct proportional to it. Under these conditions, the natural laws satisfying the demands of the (special) theory of relativity assume mathematical forms, in which the time co-ordinate plays exactly the same rôle as the three space co-ordinates. >> http://www.bartleby.com/173/17.html << where epsilon_0 and mu_0 are physical constants which can be evaluated by performing two simple experiments which involve measuring the force of attraction between two fixed charges and two fixed parallel current carrying wires.

Thus, the speed of light must be the same in all inertial frames. >> http://farside.ph.utexas.edu/teaching/em/lectures/node108.html > > > <<...one of Einstein's two main reasons for abandoning special > > relativity as a suitable framework for physics was the fact that, > > no less than Newtonian mechanics, special relativity is based > > on the unjustified and epistemologically problematical assumption > > of a preferred class of reference frames, precisely the issue raised > > by the twins paradox. >> http://www.mathpages.com/rr/s4-07/4-07.htm > > > Sue... > > I leave research of the exact dates as an exercise for readers that are intimidated by generalised Maxwell's equations.

I was talking about the laws of nature as nature obeys them, not the laws of physics as written down by humans trying to figure them out. Idiot.
