While it\u2019s possible to avoid some of that through time dilation (a quirk of physics that slows down time for anything that speeds up), humans wouldn\u2019t save a large amount of time until the ship reaches 90% of the speed of light. Assuming we could build ships that can go that fast, we could cut aging in half. At 99.5% light speed, we would age at only ten percent relative to an observer at rest. The problem is\u00a0physics.
