“I see. Have you been hitting the bars in the Kuiper belt again.”
“Well, maybe.”
“And you traveled at what fraction of the speed of light?”
“Zero point nine nine seven.”
“Applying the Lorenz factor, how much extra time passed in the Earth
frame of reference compared to your personal frame of reference?”
“Erm, maybe three days.”
“Did you travel out to the Kuiper belt at the same speed?”
“Yes.”
“That’s six days more that time progressed on Earth compared to your
personal frame of reference. When was the coursework deadline, Mr.
Physics Student?”
“Oh shit.”
