How does the aging work in Interstellar?

There’s another wrinkle here worth mentioning: time dilation as a result of gravitational effects. You might have seen Christopher Nolan’s movie Interstellar, where the close proximity of a black hole causes time on another planet to slow down tremendously (one hour on that planet is seven Earth years).

Why did they not age in Interstellar?

In movie Interstellar Cooper does not age as fast as the humans on earth and time moves slower when gravity is much stronger. So the time spent near black hole was much slower.

Why does Interstellar look so old?

The reason that Cooper stays the same age while his children continue to grow old is due to the theory of relativity, specifically time dilation and more specifically gravitational time dilation. A brief overview of the idea is that in places where gravity is higher, time passes slower.

Is Interstellar aging real?

Originally Answered: [Spoiler]: Aging is a biological process, but in interstellar movie, it is shown as people travelled in spaceship younger than people back in earth.

How old was Cooper in interstellar when he left?

The robots were rad. 13. So at the end of the movie, Cooper is 124 years old in Earth-time.

What is biological theory of aging?

Modern biological theories of aging in humans fall into two main categories: programmed and damage or error theories. Aging is the result of a sequential switching on and off of certain genes, with senescence being defined as the time when age-associated deficits are manifested.

How does your body age in space?

You age according to the time that passes in your frame of reference. If you found yourself in a high gravitational potential where time passes at half the rate as on Earth, and you spent 10 years of Earth time there, that would be 5 years of local time, and your body would age five years, not ten.

What happens at the end of interstellar?

Interstellar is a fine film for two hours, and it should have ended right then. When McConaughey cuts Hathaway loose, sending her to find the man she loves and (hopefully) save the human species, it was a perfect ending point.

Is interstellar a good movie?

See, Interstellar is a beautiful but deeply flawed film. The visuals are stunning and the performances are great, but the plot is such a mess, and the themes of the film so messy and scattered, it actually feels like three or four films packed into one. Or maybe ten films.

Does aging depend on the theory of relativity?

Now i shall explain that Aging does not depend on theory of relativity. A person moving very fast is not supposed to age faster or slower than the one moving at normal speed. Yes he will experience that he has spent lot of time because he is moving very fast relative to others.
