Time Dialation in regards to aging?

719 views

OK so I know this has been asked but I still don’t get it.

Who do humans age faster/slower? (Shown in interstellar for example) Biologically I don’t understand why the body would age faster?

I wouldn’t think of it as aging faster or slower. Instead, think of it as experiencing or measuring time differently. Clocks measure/experience time by ticking. Bodies experience time by aging. Molecules experience time by decaying.

And know that, in order to experience time differently such that two people noticeably age differently requires acceleration to speeds approaching the speed of light.
