Einstein’s theory of relativity predicts that clocks moving at very high speeds run slower relative to stationary observers. Although this effect is negligible at typical travel speeds, it becomes significant for spacecraft nearing fractions of the speed of light. GPS satellites also adjust for relativistic effects due to orbit and Earth’s gravity. While not a daily concern for most people, these principles guide aerospace engineering and long-duration space missions. Understanding time dilation reveals the dynamic nature of time and the complexity of unifying high-speed travel with precise timekeeping.
