      Yes! I think so.. It’s a complicated question because time is not very well understood yet. According to Einsteins theory of general relativity, if one twin takes off from Earth and goes for a quick trip to our nearest star neighbour (Proxima Centauri) at near light speed and came back, they will be younger than the twin they left behind!
      The theory hasn’t been proven yet but if it’s right, we could become frequent time travellers! Maybe not into the past but into the future!
