According to Einstein's Theory of Relativity, time dilation occurs when an object is moving relative to another object, causing time to appear to pass differently for each object. As the spaceship is moving, time appears to move slower for those on the spaceship relative to those who are stationary on Earth. Therefore, the clocks on the spaceship will appear to be going slower than our clocks on Earth.
