You may find still today [if I'm not mistaken, in the university of Columbia in N.Y.] the name of T.D. Lee among the physics depatment's list of professors.

He was in charge in deciding who was right and who was wrong in the case two ships traveling close to the speed of light and conveniently attached by a "hypothetical rope" could STAND in that way the effects of Einstein's relativity concepts while breaking the rope as they cruise in space.

The "paradox" was famous back in the 90's and it was used to protect and defend Einstein's views about space-time continua.

The sad part of the story was that even John Bell [from C.E.R.N.] along with the entire team of physicists working then in that european facility coincided with my personal opinion that the rope will stand in ONE PIECE!

BUT... A nobel prize awarded, physics professor and old friend of Albert Einstein came to the rescue of an absurd theory by convincing a bunch of scientists that they were wrong and he was right.

According to professor T.D. Lee's calculations: the rope will brake given the fact that space-time diagrams resulted in such conclusions.

Once again LOGIC and COMMON SENSE was disregard as useful tools and a simple hypothetical example [impossible to achieve in our time] will remain in shadows.

I had a different opinion than Mr. Professor here, but I'm a "NO-BODY" to say anything against it, especially after so many years past the incident... but I though it was interesting for you to get acquintance with the event.

The way I see it... The eather or density energy-mass in 3 D space where both ships were cruising together was relatively the same. Unless the rope were as long as an entire solar system which wasn't part of the original idea at all.

To me [once again] no change in the eather meant no change in the physical REALITY around those ships and therefore no reason for the rope to shrink or contract with respect to its original length.

The speed of both ships was the same in all cases [according to the hypothetical assumption] and therefore the only effect that relativistic fans alleged was the space-time change in the fabric of the cosmos.

The same explanation could be applied to the "Twin Paradox" too.

A long and fast trip of one of the twin could and in fact represents a differential of REALITY between both of them given the fact that one of the twin was cruising across different density of energy-mass in different regions of space producing a differential in the paralellism of both REALITIES... THAT'S FINE SO FAR!

But what you must take into consideration is that the TRIP BACK HOME will un-do that "DIFFERENTIAL" in the nature of both twin's realities since the one going back HOME was doing the same trip IN REVERSE!

I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING! Let me guess....

Well! then why the satellite clock remained with asynchronism even after they arrived to the Earth's surface?

Because the "trip" followed by the satellite was ELLIPTICAL>>>> It was following an ORBITAL PATH!

In the "twin paradox" case, one twin was traveling to a distant region of the universe to later on encounter his brother... the path wasn't elliptical and therefore he was not SPINNING around the Earth's surface!!!!

Don't you get it? Think about it for a while and you'll see my point here!

I see each possible ELLIPTICAL ORBIT around our planet Earth as a path of EQUAL REALITY COORDINATES. The point is that it is the center of the planet what defines those elliptical [not circular] orbits as concentrical with the TIME-SYSTEM built-up in our planet.

In other words: The shortest angular distance in each possible elliptical orbit aorund the Earth is in fact the lower and more stable state for any object to follow without the waste of further energy! That's why a satellite can orbit around the planet for a relative long time. To make an orbital correction you need energy but to follow that orbital path you need almost nothing but to keep up with the Earth's rotational pattern around the sun. Since we haven't calculated and therefore build a system to resolve this small discrepancies, the satellite is always destined to fall to the surface. I believe that a calculated "propelling mechanism" on board of any artificial satellite put by us in orbit will result in an eternal orbit with no lose of altitude.

As I have said before... Since the EATHER responsible for the gravity we "enjoy" and the path of our planet around the star is originated inside the sun, the physical REALITY [including the concept of "SPACE" in it too] follows the same pattern I've explained above.

If we were capable of transmitting an instantaneous image of the twin brother traveling to a far region of the universe to a TV set watched by his twin brother back on Earth the age difference could be huge enough to make him pretty concerned and sad.

The thing is that an instantaneous transmission of the info is also impossible at a greatest speed than light. It is known that using entanglement technology we could send signals F.T.L. to other regions of the universe, but if you go deep into the subject you'll see why is not feasable as a technique to transmit INFORMATION from one corner of space to the other... check it out if you wish...!

In other words.... the SYMMETRY OF REALITY is what's important and there is no possible way to cheat it in any way!

Do you want to re-create the "twin paradox" in a correct way?

Put one of the twins in a fast spinning ship around the Earth and you'll achieve a substancially observable age differential between both.... but to do that we will need to increase the speed of the spinning ship to impossible speeds....

WHO KNOWS...

I wouldn't find impossible to believe that as we speak there are ALIENS doing the same thing! They maybe interested to establish "FIRST CONTACT" with humans, but since we are too primitive for them, they decided to SPIN around our home-planet for as long as it's necessary.... An interesting hypothesis, don't you think?
