I'm trying to fully understand the effects of time when travelling near the speed of light... Now, if people on a ship were travelling at 99% (roughly) the speed of light, I hear it will take about 80 years to reach the edge of our galaxy. My question is; is it 80 years for us on earth, or 80 years for the people on-board the ship?
