The Twin Paradox is a thought experiment in the realm of special relativity, famously introduced by Albert Einstein. It involves two twins, one of whom makes a journey into space in a high-speed rocket and then returns home, while the other twin remains on Earth. Due to the effects of time dilation predicted by Einstein's theory of relativity, the traveling twin will age more slowly compared to the twin who stayed on Earth.
