Twins Paradox
The Twins Paradox is a famous thought experiment showing a confusing potential outcome of time dilation predicted by Special Relativity.
Are therethe answers by academics in thesethe threads below (one referencing the other) providing a satisfactory explanationexplanations of the Twins Paradox? You be the judge. To me, these thoughtful answers bring up more new questions than they answer; a tell-tail sign that something isn't quite right.

In fact, many predicted responses tolisted in this Relativity Challenge are coveredwell well.covered. On a humorous side note, a summary of common assumptionsresponses are also addressed in this satire.
Before Einstein'Einstein's theories of relativity, a universal frame of reference or, commonly called aether, was generally accepted. The Lorentz Ether Theory (LET) continues to be a common alternate theory to relativity:relativity. LET Thedoes Twinnot have a Twins Paradox in Special Relativity and in Lorentz Ether Theory.
