The scenario is:
Terrence is inertial.
Stella passes Terrence with the speed 0.8c relative to Terrence.
At the instant when Stella is adjacent to Terrence they both set
their clocks to zero, and Stella starts her rocket engine so that
she accelerates at the constant acceleration c per year (≈ 0.97g)
towards Terrence.
Some time later, Stella will again pass Terrence at the speed 0.8c.
The only question I want answered is:
What do Stella's clock and Terrence's clock show
at the instant when Stella passes Terence the second time?
But it's a very simple question.
Why don't you do it to show me you understand?
