Title: Attach a camera to a rocket moving near light speed , will we see the future ?
Post by: askrav26 on Sep 28, 2012
according to Einstein's relativity , if we send a manner rocket to outer space travelling near the speed of light a few light years away and comes  back to earth, the man will have travelled to the future as the time in earth travel faster....
what if we attach a camera to the rocket and continuously relay the images in the rocket to earth ... Will we be able to observe the slowness experienced by the traveler ? Will the camera relay images from the future to our present time ?

No. You would have to have a rocket go faster than the speed of light to see the future.Because of Einstein's theory,you can't go faster than the speed of light.

If you had a rocket travelling at near light speed, and had some way to instantaneously send the images back to Earth the video would appear to be very very slow while on the rocket the astronauts would notice no time difference.  If the astronauts could also get video back from Earth instantaneously everything on Earth would appear to be moving very very fast.
