Relativity, faggots. Explain this shit.

In the twin paradox, the twin that went to the star will appear younger to the twin on earth. But couldn't we say that in fact the earth is moving at .9c (for the sake of simplicity, I'm ignoring the earth's rotation around the sun, etc...) and the spaceship is still? Then, wouldn't the twin on earth be younger than the twin in the spaceship?

As you approach the speed of light the relative rate of time approaches zero. It is rather difficult to throw a baseball when you are frozen in time.
