Question

Astronauts at the ISS orbit around the Earth at about 8km/s. Thus, from the Earths perspective, the ISS experiences some amount of time dilation.

A. If an astronaut spends 60 years of their life on the ISS, how much time will have passed on Earth?

B. Two identical twins, Twin A and Twin B, are astronauts in training. Twin A is selected to go on the ISS for two years while Twin B remains on Earth. Eventually, Twin A returns to Earth. Are the siblings still the same age or has one aged more than the other?
