When I previously had access to the internet about ten years ago I
expressed interest in this topic and was informed that a space
traveller does not physically age at a slower rate but that his earth-
bound twin physically ages at a faster rate and only during the period
of acceleration following turn around.

Is this idea still in vogue? Has it been published in any peer
reviewed journal?

Advocates of the notion can't even describe the
the physical characteristics the twins reunion.

It is mathematically and physically absurd.
It is the same as:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_dollar_paradox
...the right calculations in the wrong places.


3 or 4 versions are debunked here.

Abstract
Einstein addressed the twin paradox in special relativity
in a relatively unknown, unusual and rarely cited paper
written in 1918, in the form of a dialogue between a
critic and a relativist. Contrary to most textbook versions
of the resolution, Einstein admitted that the special
relativistic time dilation was symmetric for the twins,
and he had to invoke, asymmetrically, the general relativistic
gravitational time dilation during the brief periods
of acceleration to justify the asymmetrical aging.
Notably, Einstein did not use any argument related to
simultaneity or Doppler shift in his analysis. I discuss
Einstein's resolution and several conceptual issues
that arise. It is concluded that Einstein's resolution using
gravitational time dilation suffers from logical and
physical flaws, and gives incorrect answers in a general
setting. The counter examples imply the need to reconsider
many issues related to the comparison of transported
clocks. The failure of the accepted views and
resolutions is traced to the fact that the special relativity
principle formulated originally for physics in empty
space is not valid in the matter-filled universe.

His 1920 paper seems to have the appropriate changes
so it isn't predicted. (Imaginary time in Minkowski space
and relativistic mass to make the inertial coupling)

I beleive there is even a loose reference to time
dependent Maxwell's equations in the 1923 Nobel
Lecture.

a) Maxwell equations (no movement),
b) Maxwell equations (with moved bodies)
http://www.wolfram-stanek.de/maxwell_equations.htm#maxwell_classic_extended
http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1921/einstein-lecture.html

So I'd say it is more the influence of die-hard H.G. Wells and
Ponce de Leon fans that don't want it resolved so they
ignore the latter papers.
<<
Pseudoscience does not progress.
... New theories are seldom proposed, and old concepts
are rarely modified or discarded in light of new "discoveries,"
since pseudoscience rarely makes new "discoveries."
The older the idea, the more respect it receives. No
natural phenomena or processes previously unknown
to science have ever been discovered by pseudoscientists.
Indeed, pseudoscientists almost invariably deal with
phenomena well known to scientists, but little known to
the general public-so that the public will swallow
whatever the pseudoscientist wants to claim....>>

It doesn't suffer a flaw. In fact the perspective is equivalent to
addressing the matter in terms of relative simultaneity. The
accelerated observer can be given coordinates according to an
accelerated frame transformation that I mention here

for his entire journet continuously, but they are curvalinear when the
accelerations take place giving rise to the nonzero Christoffel
symbols that I mention. Those can be interpreted as a gravitational
acceleration from his perspective.

No, relativity simultaneity arises from the mathematics of the Lorentz
transform. It was first noticed by Poincare. Under the concept of
relative simultaneity, it is OK not to compare the time among all
frames of references, and you cannot string a series of events
together like a history timeline showing exactly when each event takes
place. This also means relative simultaneity cannot allow anyone to
observe any consistent interference pattern. This means MMX would
fail even to employ the interferometer that resulted in first the
Voigt transform and then the later Lorentz transform.

This is utter BS and nonsense. You can always design a mission
profile for each twin where each twin would faithfully execute each
command when the time comes. Each twin accelerates away with the same
duration and intensity. Each twin coast a while without any
acceleration. Each twin then decelerates and reunites at rest relative
to each other. With the effect acceleration nulled out, you still
have plenty of relative speed to affect any symmetrical time dilation.

Einstein was a guesser. He guessed some right but mostly wrong.
Using GR to resolve the twin's paradox is one of Einstein's many
blunders. You should seriously consider not to worship that nitwit.

The only folks who worship Einstein are morons like you.
How in the world would you construe that I worship Einstein the
nitwit? Is it because your idol Einstein the nitwit is exposed by me
as one such nitwit? Let's see before 1905.

** Length contraction was already proposed by Fitz-Gerald and
Lorentz.

** Constancy in the speed of light was already suggested by Voigt to
explain the null results of Michelson's 1881 experiment which
superseded Michelson's more famous cooperation with Morley six years
later.


** Voigt transform was already identified as a modification to the
Galilean transform that would explain Michelson's the null results of
the 1881 experiment.

** Lorentz transform was already suggested by Larmor after modifying
the Voigt transform to satisfy the principle of relativity.

** Principle of relativity was already suggested by Galileo 300 years
prior.

** Poincare was already established the relative simultaneity
manifested by the mathematics of the Lorentz transform.

Since the Lorentz transform manifests the absurdity of the twin's
paradox, it cannot be considered as a valid piece of physical model,
and yet Professor Roberts sucked the BS all up. In his claim, he is
seeing SR (Lorentz transform) effect in his lab all day long. He is
talking about the observed time dilation. Time dilation alone does
not establish the validity of the Lorentz transform. You must prove
beyond any reason of doubt that the principle of relativity is not
violated. To also prove the principle of relativity, that means the
absurdity of the twin's paradox is a physical law. Well, this is the
trend in physical research. <Sigh>

Continuing with Einstein's contributions in physics in 1916,

** Einstein's professor, Minkowski, who did not have any positive
thing to say about his mentally challenged student, has already weaved
the mathematical construct implied by the Lorentz transform into
something called the spacetime to replace the Aether as already cast
in doubt of its existence by Poincare.

** The Goettingen group of scientists which included Minkowski,
Hilbert, Klein, Schwarzschild have already modeled a curved spacetime
based on Minkowski's model of flat spacetime. These guys just did not
have any clues on how to identify the metric.

** Hilbert had already pulled out a mathematical quantity out of his
*ss which is erroneous identified as a density to the very abstract
quantity called the Einstein-Hilbert action.

** Voila. By taking the partial derivative of this quantity with
respect to each element of the metric, Hilbert cooked up the field
equations. In the meantime, the nitwit Einstein was still struggling
to understand and modify Paul Gerber's work on derivations to
Mercury's orbital advance.

** The first solution to the field equations according to history was
solved by Schwarzschild in his war camp which does not manifest any
black holes.

** Since the field equations yield an infinite number of solutions,
Hilbert was disappointed by Schwarzschild's work. Hilbert had to
present a much simpler solution after Schwarzschild's demise in the
disease-stricken eastern front of WWI. History identified Hilbert's
much simpler solution as the Schwarzschild metric.

Well, I just cannot see what and where the nitwit Einstein's
contributions are. Did somebody whisper the Cosmological constant?
In effect, the Cosmological constant is to add a negative mass density
to the Newtonian law of gravity. Since positive mass gives attractive
gravitational effect, it should not be a surprise that negative mass
gives gravitational repulsion. Poisson beat Einstein to it by at
least 100 years. The Cosmological constant cannot be Einstein's
biggest blunder because there has been nothing coming out of Einstein
the nitwit. <shrug>

Have I explained myself more clearly now that I am no worshipper of
the nitwit Einstein?

PS. Quit doing the cowardly thing learnt from Bilger trying to
forward any replies to alt.morons. It would not work in the long run.

When I previously had access to the internet about ten years ago I
expressed interest in this topic and was informed that a space
traveller does not physically age at a slower rate but that his earth-
bound twin physically ages at a faster rate and only during the period
of acceleration following turn around.
Is this idea still in vogue? Has it been published in any peer
reviewed journal?
Advocates of the notion can't even describe the
the physical characteristics the twins reunion.
It is mathematically and physically absurd.
It is the same as:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_dollar_paradox
...the right calculations in the wrong places.
3 or 4 versions are debunked here.
Abstract
Einstein addressed the twin paradox in special relativity
in a relatively unknown, unusual and rarely cited paper
written in 1918, in the form of a dialogue between a
critic and a relativist. Contrary to most textbook versions
of the resolution, Einstein admitted that the special
relativistic time dilation was symmetric for the twins,
and he had to invoke, asymmetrically, the general relativistic
gravitational time dilation during the brief periods
of acceleration to justify the asymmetrical aging.
Notably, Einstein did not use any argument related to
simultaneity or Doppler shift in his analysis. I discuss
Einstein's resolution and several conceptual issues
that arise. It is concluded that Einstein's resolution using
gravitational time dilation suffers from logical and
physical flaws, and gives incorrect answers in a general
setting. The counter examples imply the need to reconsider
many issues related to the comparison of transported
clocks. The failure of the accepted views and
resolutions is traced to the fact that the special relativity
principle formulated originally for physics in empty
space is not valid in the matter-filled universe.

Einsteins resolution had no flaw. It is in fact equivalent to the
resolution in terms of relative simultaneity. At the link
http://youtu.be/yEy7OQiHmtE
I mention the coordinate transformation from the accelerated frame to
the inertial frame. This transformation yields curvalinear coordinates
for the accelerated observer durring accelerations. I also mention
that this gives rise to nonzero Christoffel symbols. These can be
interpreted as a gravitational acceleration field(not spacetime
curvature field). Furthermore, through a level of equivalence the
effect could then be interpreted in terms of a Doppler shift. It
doesn't really matter which perspective is taken as they are
equivalent and correct.

I'm not sure what you mean by the question. I assume you mean to ask
if light from the "nasa clocks" moves to the "rocket man's" telescope
at constant velocity. According to the coordinates of any inertial
frame, the answer is yes. However at the turn around the rocket man
isn't using an inertial frame. I give a transformation from his most
suitable choice of frame to an inertial frame, but it yields
curvalinear coordinates for him durring the acceleration according to
which he will reckon that the speed of light and more importantly the
frequency of it is *not* everywhere constant. In accelerated frame
coordinates the speed of light is only everywhere *locally* invariant.
He may interpret what is happening as a transition in standards of
relative simultaneity between two inertial frames that he uses or he
may interpret it as a gravitational acceleration effect in equivalence
to his rocket boosters kicking in or he may even interpret it as a
doppler effect. The analysis for these can all be done in a way that
they are equivalent.

You are claiming to support a preopstrous notion

of anomalous aging twins solely on the basis

where i^2 = -1 as usual. This turns out to be the
essence of the fabric (or metric) of spacetime geometry -

I'm not sure what you mean by the question. I assume you mean to ask
if light from the "nasa clocks" moves to the "rocket man's" telescope
at constant velocity.
No...
A bullet moves inertially and has mass.
A wave propagates across a pond and
has no mass.
Post by W***@aol.com
According to the coordinates of any inertial
frame, the answer is yes.
That seems probematic if the speed of
light is dependent on neither the speed of
the emitter nor the speed of the absorber.

Einstein didn't write "we establish by definition that the time required by
light to travel from A to B equals the time it requires to travel from B to
A " and it's
not a postulate.

Yes, I did say that because it is Einstein's third postulate upon which

Yes, I did say that because it is Einstein's third postulate upon which
he depends to derive the cuckoo malformations, fuckhead.

Look, fuckhead, Einstein said "we establish by definition that the time
required
by light to travel from A to B equals the time it requires to travel from B
to A" and YOU are the stupid bastard that said it wasn't a postulate.

I ... was informed that a space traveller does not physically
age at a slower rate but that his earth-bound twin physically
ages at a faster rate and only during the period of
acceleration following turn around.
That can't possibly be right because the acceleration time for
the traveling twin can be made arbitrarily small.

The stay-at-home twin ages at the usual rate .. as he does not move in his
initial rest frame (he must be very patient, waiting for his twin to return)
the rate of time doesn't change for him.

Of course .. from the point of view of the travelling-twin, he doesn't
notice time in the spaceship being any different .. he will perceive that
his stay-at-home twin just got really old.

The entire nonsense about relativity drives me up the wall. But it
can be amusing.

If even time is a relative thing, then if ones clock is ticking slower
than another's for what ever reason, then you have, thanks to
relativity, sped up everyone else's clocks across the entire universe,
since all is relative, for your clock actual has not changed at all.

But you also have to understand that if you come up with a theory
concerning the mechanics of reality, and it produces equations such
as .....

1) The Lorentz-Fitzgerald Contraction Equation,
2) The Time Dilation Equation,
3) The Lorentz Transformation Equations, and
4) The Velocity addition Equation

.... then it MUST be reject completely. That is the law of today !

And so it is necessary to understand what kind of mentality exists
today that is required to draw such an intense form of rejection. In
short, todays system insists absolutely that all TRUTHS must be
rejected and banned. It is amazing isn't it ?

Read http://www.outersecrets.com/real/forum_againstum2.htm and watch
how your mind rejects every single word even though the outcome leads
to .....

1) The Lorentz-Fitzgerald Contraction Equation,
2) The Time Dilation Equation,
3) The Lorentz Transformation Equations, and
4) The Velocity addition Equation

... the acceleration time for the traveling twin can be made arbitrarily small.
Which would seem to suggest that the slower aging of the traveling
twin must be a real dynamical effect of motion relative to a physical
substratum of space.

That is, although it can be mathematically modeled as the result of
a "geometric projection" of the twins onto different coordinate
systems, that does not seem adequate to explain the permanent physical
consequences.

Yup. Mathematics should not be confused with physics. The problem with the
"geometric projection" is that it mixes space and time; it's therefore only
acceptable as *physical* model for those who claim that space is time - but
that does not seem tenable.

Is this idea still in vogue? Has it been published in any peer

No. That idea may stem from Einstein's 1918 GRT solution of the twin
paradox, but it is not widely accepted: "induced gravitational fields" are
messy. See for example a discussion of a few years back:

traveller does not physically age at a slower rate but that his earth-
bound twin physically ages at a faster rate and only during the period
of acceleration following turn around.
Is this idea still in vogue? Has it been published in any peer
reviewed journal?
No. That idea may stem from Einstein's 1918 GRT solution of the twin
paradox, but it is not widely accepted: "induced gravitational fields" are
http://tinyurl.com/2mu4jv
The reference is good: there is a quotation in it that shows how
students at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign are converted
Tom Roberts: "Physics is LOCAL -- don't worry how the distant twin is
aging during the trip; all that can be tested experimentally is the
comparison of their clocks when they rejoin; compute that correctly
and be happy."
The students aren't being converted into zombies. The professor is
merely instructing them on how to believe in a perfect mathematical
fantasy....
and so converts them into zombies. But I made a mistake - Tom Roberts
does not convert students at the University of Illinois, Urbana-
Champaign into zombies. Rather, he converts students at Illinois
Institute of Technology, Department of Biological, Chemical, and
http://www.iit.edu/~bcps/database/search.cgi/:/frontend/index
But he will convert all University students into zombies sooner or
later - nothing can stop him.
The University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign is one of the best
schools in the U.S. (and the world). What is your highest level of
education? Do you lie about your academic qualifications like
Androcles does?

messy. See for example a discussion of a few years back:http://tinyurl.com/2mu4jv

In other words, Einstein demonstrated very clearly that he didn't know
how to resolve the twin paradox in that relatively unknown, unusual
and rarely cited paper written in 1918.

The entire nonsense about relativity drives me up the wall. But it
can be amusing.

If even time is a relative thing, then if ones clock is ticking slower
than another's for what ever reason, then you have, thanks to
relativity, sped up everyone else's clocks across the entire universe,
since all is relative, for your clock actual has not changed at all.


But you also have to understand that if you come up with a theory
concerning the mechanics of reality, and it produces equations such
as .....

1) The Lorentz-Fitzgerald Contraction Equation,
2) The Time Dilation Equation,
3) The Lorentz Transformation Equations, and
4) The Velocity addition Equation

.... then it MUST be reject completely. That is the law of today !

And so it is necessary to understand what kind of mentality exists
today that is required to draw such an intense form of rejection. In
short, todays system insists absolutely that all TRUTHS must be
rejected and banned. It is amazing isn't it ?

Read http://www.outersecrets.com/real/forum_againstum2.htm and watch
how your mind rejects every single word even though the outcome leads
to .....

1) The Lorentz-Fitzgerald Contraction Equation,
2) The Time Dilation Equation,
3) The Lorentz Transformation Equations, and
4) The Velocity addition Equation

.... and how it shows at the bottom of the page the " C " dome that
helps clarify problems such a the Twins Paradox.

If the shit hits the fan, it may seem as through the magnitude of the
motion of the stool has changed, however, the fan has simply changed
its direction of travel across the open four dimensions of Space-

Or, for instance, if a stool flies out of your butt faster than usual,
it simply means that you have used your internal muscles to change the
direction of travel of the your stool, which is in motion across Space-

When I previously had access to the internet about ten years ago I
expressed interest in this topic and was informed that a space

bound twin physically ages at a faster rate and only during the period
of acceleration following turn around.
Is this idea still in vogue? Has it been published in any peer

I do not quite understand your question but there is only
one theory of space and time that has been taught and
used by physicists throughout the world for nearly a
century and that is Einstein's theory of relativity.

Various aspects of relativity have, of course, been
published in peer-reviewed journals and the theory is
completely accepted. The only dissent is in places
like this newsgroup where any crackpot is free to post.

According to relativity, the earthbound twin will be
found to have aged more than the travelling twin when
they meet up again. How the aging of each twin is
measured by the other twin during the journey is
described in many places and web sites. If you are
interested I will try to find one for you.

Try to find places where hypnotists in Einstein criminal cult say the
greater youthfulness of the travelling twin is due to the acceleration
he undergoes and places where other (or even the same) hypnotists say
the greater youthfulness of the travelling twin has nothing to do with
the acceleration. You may even find a place where a hypnotist say both
truths simultaneously.

No.
By the way, guess who is the Albert Einstein of our generation
teaching both truths simultaneously (I am still not sure whether it is
hypnotism or lobotomy):

A 2004 discussion in sci.physics.relativity:

http://groups.google.ca/group/sci.physics.relativity/browse_frm/thread/c51c3061f6a083e6?
Tom Roberts: The problem with your first two statements is they are
not specified precisely enough to have a definite answer.
1. The travelling twin is younger because he undergoes acceleration.
Tom Roberts: Well, sort of. A better way of stating this is that the
traveling twin is younger because he did not follow a geodesic path
while her inertial twin did. But a necessary ingredient of his
following a non-geodesic path is that he accelerates somewhere. The
point is, the elapsed proper time of a path is an integral over the
PATH, not the acceleration. One can arrange a situation for 2 clocks
which follow trajectories that periodically meet, in which the clock
with the larger proper acceleration also has the larger elapsed proper
time betwen meetings.
2. The acceleration can be neglected and yet calculations based on
uniform motion show that the travelling twin is younger.
Tom Roberts: I'm not sure what you mean by "the acceleration can be
neglected". I'm guessing that you mean the "3-clock approach", in
which the "traveling twin" is replaced by two inertial clocks that
meet at his nominal turning point, and the time is transferred when
they meet -- one clock is his outbound trip and the second is his
return trip. This way there is no acceleration, but one time
measurement takes an out-and-back trip and the other measurement
remains at home (in an inertial frame). Yes, for that 3-clock approach
the traveling 2 clocks show a total elapsed proper time less than the
inertial clock. The point is, the elapsed proper time of a path is an
integral over the PATH, not the acceleration.
3. Special relativity cannot resolve the twin paradox - only general
relativity can.
Tom Roberts: This was thought to be true a long time ago, by Einstein
and others. It is now known to be false. SR can be used to compute any
measurement in this situation, because it occurs in Minkowski
spacetime (i.e. there is no curvature present).

The question is this: Since the time to accelerate for the traveling
twin can be made arbitrarily small, why do the twins age
asymmetrically? The questioner is not satisfied with the answer,
"because that's what the equations of special relativity imply." The
questioner is focused on the seeming contradiction of the unresolved
riddle that says that each twin sees the clock of the other twin run
slow.

It is NOT true that each twin concludes that the other twin ages more
slowly DURING THE ENTIRE JOURNEY. That IS true for the home twin,
but the traveling twin only comes to that conclusion during the two
constant-speed portions of his trip. During his turnaround, the
traveler concludes that his twin ages FASTER than he is ageing. The
TOTAL amount of ageing of the home twin during the entire trip is
greater than the traveler's ageing, and BOTH travelers get the same
answer for that.

For an example with 1g accelerations, see my web page:

I do not quite understand your question but there is only
one theory of space and time that has been taught and

He meant there are so many different resolutions to the twin's
paradox. Each resolution is contradicting the others. Since all are
under the concept of SR, when you embrace one, you must find reasons
to reject the others, and this obvious has not been done. There goes
so much for peers review. hanson is going to get a laugh out of this
one.

Well, crackpots have been pulling out resolutions to the twin's
paradox out of their *ss since Langevin first identified the
mathematical absurdity of the Lorentz transform as the twin's paradox
in 1911.

The twin's paradox is manifestation of the combination of the time
dilation and the principle of relativity. The Lorentz transform
indicates both phenomena. You cannot shrug away the twin's paradox
like all these crackpots since the time of the nitwit Einstein.

Thanks Martin, although, as you point out, the respective ageing of
the twins during the journey has several interpretations perhaps you
could let me know of one that has been completely accepted by the

Preferably one that is presented in everyday language and is not

I'm trying to find one that makes sense.

Interpretations are not hard science - it depends on personal taste.
- Langevin's explanation makes perfect sense to me: the twin paradox started
out as an illustration by him for his argument.
- Minkowski's explanation appears to be most popular nowadays; but it's hard
to find people who REALLY believe that time and space are of the same

1911, not 1916. And people nowadays use Minkowski's idea that space can be
rotated into time as explanation for what they call the twin paradox.

The twin paradox arise because SR makes the following bogus assertions:
1. SR asserts that a clock second in A's frame (the stay-at-home frame) can
be compared directly with a clock second on the B clock ( the traveling twin
clock) when B rejoins A.
2. During the journey, the duration (the time content) of a clock second in
B's frame has the same duration (the time content) as a clock second in A's
frame.

Item #1 is not true even in SR. In SR the passage of a clock second in A's
frame corresponds to the passage of 1/gamma second in B's frame. In other
words one of B's second is worth gamma of A's second. So if we want to
compare the passage of time directly we must convert B's time into A's time
before we make the comparison.
When we do that the so call twin paradox disappears. The lower clock seconds
recorded on the B clock converted to the A clock seconds is gamma A seconds
and that's exactly what the A clock will read.

A paper entitled "Improved Relativity Theory" (IRT) incorporates the above
analysis is available in my website. IRT includes SRT as a subset. However,
unlike SRT, the equations of IRT are valid in all environments, including
gravity.

Of course it can .. its just a clock

A clock second is a clock second in every frame in which a clock is at rest

No .. you should say a clock in B observed from A runs slower than a clock
at rest in A

AND .. a clock in A observed from B runs slower than a clock at rest in B

Please .. get it right

In other

And vice versa

Not when the twin returns ,because then when the twin stops, it is at rest
in the SAME frame of reference.

It is indeed so-called, because it is not a paradox at all.

Yes .. you could do some math to make corrections. The fact remains that

Well, first off, as usually portrayed the twin paradox
uses impossible velocities. The best I can do is about
0.10-0.20 c, and that's with refueling at both ends and
a virtually impossible 4-proton reaction, which only
happens in the heart of stars under intense pressure
and temperature.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aneutronic_fusion

indicates a number of largely theoretical reactions that
can result in helium nuclei, which can simply be expelled
from a hypothetical rocket. For various reasons the best
reaction appears to be impinging protons on boron-11,
yielding 3 helium nuclei and 8.7 MeV -- or 2.9 MeV per
nucleus. Since the alpha particle has a mass of 3.72738
GeV, one can calculate gamma = 1.0007780264, or v_e =
0.039424 c. Using the admittedly Newtonian rocket equation
with this velocity and a propellant-to-payload ratio of
20:1, I get a maximum possible velocity of
v_f = v_e * log(20) = 0.118 c -- and that's with no brakes
and perfect thermodynamics (all the energy goes into the exhaust) --
which can't happen anyway, but never mind...

A more realistic velocity (unless one is contemplating a
suicide mission and/or shelling an enemy planet from very
long range) divides that in half -- 0.06 c -- and most of
the trip will be done in free flight. If we accelerate
at 1 g for almost 21 days, we're at cruising speed and
can shut off the engines (except for electrical power).

So, let's take a conceptual trip to Sirius, 8.6 lightyears away,
and assume they have a boron/hydrogen refueling station there.

Newtonian physics would have one believe that the trip
will take about 8.6 / 0.06 = 143.333 years there, and
143.333 years back -- and that's assuming the destination
has minable boron and hydrogen. (If they don't, crusing
speed is reduced to 0.03 c and we're talking a round trip
of over half a millennium.)

SR will shave off about 6 months off this trip, at v = 0.06 c,
a 0.18% savings. Not exactly worth the trouble, is it? :-)

Of course things get far more interesting at the atomic or
subatomic level; the Large Hadron Collider in particular
is assumed to throw particles at near-lightspeed, despite
pouring in far more energy than is needed to generate
Newtonian lightspeed particles. SR also neatly explains
why we see muons on the Earth's surface.
