CanThe Twins Paradox is a famous thought experiment showing a confusing outcome time dilation predicted by Special Relativity.

None of the academics writing answers in either of these physics.stackexchange threadthreads (one referencing the other) seem to be able to provide a satisfactory explanation of the Twins Paradox?  It doesn't appear so to me.Paradox:

TheBut, predictable "possible responses"responses to athis Relativity Challenge do receive good coverage.  A whimsical overview of these arguments are coveredaddressed in the above threads and additional Google searching has, for me, resulted in more of the same.  Truthfully, the satire in Relativity Facepalm may be real..

Lorentz Ether Theory (LET) and a universal coordinate system do begin to sound more reasonable than Special Relativity (SR):system: The Twin Paradox in Special Relativity and in Lorentz Ether Theory
