    Re: Relativity Question —Jude Beaudin
   (...) Does this mean once a person is travelling at a particular velocity (e.g. .99c), he will not feel any further time dilation effects if he is no longer accelerating? IOW, is time dilation only experienced during acceleration? Jude (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
   
        Re: Relativity Question —Dave Schuler
   (...) The actual slowing takes place during acceleration, but it will persist at the slowed rate once acceleration ceases, lasting until the traveler drops back into the other (apparently stationary) inertial frame. Dave! (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
