Since the speed of light is 299,792,458 meters p/second, you would have to travel at 149,896,229 meters p/second, which is very fast. I, for myself think that can never happen, but I may be wrong. Maybe, I'll try to do thatsomeday because there probally will be technology to do that.

 
+6

You would still age at the same rate but, life around you would go by more quickly. If you traveled at half light speed, 93000 miles per second, it would seem that you were aging at half speed.
