RELATIVISTIC PHYSICS
Time Dilation
As a vessel approaches the speed of light, time aboard it slows relative to a stationary observer. Enter a velocity and a shipboard duration to see how much time passes outside.

LORENTZ FACTOR (γ)2.294157
DILATED TIME2.294157 years
TIME RATIO2.294157 : 1
While 1 years pass aboard the ship, 2.294157 years elapse for a stationary observer.
