  Hai perfettamente ragione, quando l'astronave del gemello viaggiatore
accelera istantaneamente da gamma=1 (non gamma=0) a gamma=8, avvengono
cose strane.

  La stazione spaziale S (che prima era distante quasi 40 anni-luce)
improvvisamente s'avvicina a quasi 5 anni-luce (altrimenti non potrebbe
raggiungerla in soli 5 anni).

  Quindi improvvisamente lo spazio si contrae di 8 volte (da 40 a 5) e
altrettanto improvvisamente il tempo si dilata di 8 volte.

  I corpi vanno verso dietro (s'avvicinano) e il tempo va in avanti (il
gemello terrestre invecchia istantaneamente e altrettanto
istantaneamente la Terra gira 40 volte intorno al Sole).

  Il gemello terrestre, la Terra, il Sole e l'intero sistema solare
"vivono" 40 anni della loro vita mentre il gemello viaggiatore ha
soltanto il tempo di fumarsi una sigaretta!

(You're perfectly right when the traveling twin spaceship accelerates
instantly from range = 1 (no range = 0) to gamma = 8, strange things
happen. Space Station S (which was nearly 40 years old) suddenly
approaches almost five years light (otherwise it could not reach it in
just 5 years). So suddenly the space is contracted 8 times (40 to 5)
and equally suddenly the time dilates 8 times. The bodies go backward
(they approach) and time goes forward (the Earth's twin grows instantly
and instantly the Earth spins 40 times around the Sun). Earth twin,
Earth, Sun and the entire solar system "live" 40 years of their lives
while the traveling twin has only the time to smoke a cigarette!).
