According to the the (special theory of) Relativity, if an observer is stationary and sees a fast moving object then time runs faster for the observer compared to the mover.
For example, persons 'A' & 'B' are somewhere far away in universe standing on a platform. There is nothing nearby for several light years. Hypothetically assume that 'A' is standing on the platform and 'B' boards the rocket and flies away with a significant % of light speed. Due to which the time runs 1.67 faster for 'A' compared to 'B'.
When 'B' returns to see 'A' after 10 years, 'A' has already passed 16.7 years. This is the premises of Relativity.
