according to Einstein's relativity , if we send a manner rocket to outer space travelling near the speed of light a few light years away and comes back to earth, the man will have travelled to the future as the time in earth travel faster....
what if we attach a camera to the rocket and continuously relay the images in the rocket to earth ... Will we be able to observe the slowness experienced by the traveler ? Will the camera relay images from the future to our present time ?

If you had a rocket travelling at near light speed, and had some way to instantaneously send the images back to Earth the video would appear to be very very slow while on the rocket the astronauts would notice no time difference. If the astronauts could also get video back from Earth instantaneously everything on Earth would appear to be moving very very fast.

placed it this manner -- traveling on the fee of light, it would take type of four years to realize Alpha Centauri FROM the perspective OF AN OBSERVER in the international. in case you have been the only PILOTING the spacecraft, time outdoors the deliver might seem to decelerate relative on your individual time as you purchased nearer to the fee of light -- which will you, it would look like the holiday only took a jiffy. so some distance as how briskly would desire to a deliver bypass....your substantial limits are going to be how plenty gasoline you could carry, and how immediately you could advance up using the gasoline attainable. in case you have been waiting to construct a deliver like the theoretical Bussard ramjet -- which might use an excellent magnetic container to "scoop" ambient hydrogen from the close to-vacuum of area and use it for gasoline -- your gasoline furnish may be efficiently countless, and marvelous velocity might finally be desperate with the help of friction against that user-friendly volume of hydrogen nonetheless in area. I study as quickly as that physicists have calculated that marvelous velocity to be approximately 60% lightspeed.

No. You would have to have a rocket go faster than the speed of light to see the future.Because of Einstein's theory,you can't go faster than the speed of light.
