Okay... We all know that if our twin brother goes up in a space ship
at near speed of light and then returns to earth some time later, he
will be much younger than those of us who stayed behind. But... Time
is constant when measured with an atomic -- cesium -- clock, so what
if we both have atomic clocks with us and he goes and comes back...
Would we both be the same age then?

Chronologically or physiologically?

Be sure there's a loophole in there somewhere and the twin would
return younger, but... Would he...?

Mind messing can be fun. '-)

Who just set her watch by a cesium clock

Or maybe the better question is whether or not their cesium clocks
would still be in synch when the twin returns. Science says they
would. So why would the space travelling twin be physiologically
younger? '-)

Have fun!
