I think they’ll appear slower to us. We’d be sped up to them. I’d love to be able to travel at half the speed of light, a few months and I’d be able to return far in the future.

- yodsanklai 6y agoThis is the plot of the book "planet of the apes". The explorers think they are on a different planet, until they realize they are in a future earth (because they travel at near the speed of light in their spaceship). (hope I don't spoil anything, it's such a classic).
