Discussion, in terms of special theory of relativity, of "clock paradox" involving fact that frequency of atomic oscillator on moving body is lowered, but mass, which is converted into radiation, is increased; discussion also includes shift in frequency in presence of gravitational field, clock rate on satellite, speed attainable by photon rocket, and space ship propelled by energy of interstellar matter.
