Most people i know don't try and understand relativity, they just move onto the more tangable sides of physics, but to deny relativity is to deny so much of our current view of reality..Observation is only a small part of it, the effects of relativity are well documented and tested and is one of the most tested theory's in modern science and still it stands..after all this time..if only einstein could have got rid of the idea of a static universe we may be alot closer to the answer..It is quite simple (sort of) the faster you go, the less time you experiance (relative to someone who is standing still) well, as still as is possable, becasue absolute rest is a fantasy..
