A well-known objection to Einstein's Theory of Relativity is the Twin Paradox. Most scientists do not take it very seriously, but here I explain why I think some of the attempted answers are unsatisfactory, and then, even though I do not believe that the original paradox was ever really resolved, I give a version of it that I believe is stronger. Supplement When I first came up with this thought experiment I used 12 million kilometers as the radius of the circle. I did so because I visualized something similar to a track that is used for race cars or horse racing except that it would be a circle instead of an oval. But I later realized that the g-forces...
