    Another Time Dilation Question

    Alpha Centauri is 4.5 light years from earth. Imagine a spaceship able to fly at 0.9c. How long would it take to get there as observed by the pilot, and by mission control on earth? I understand that v=0.9c and c=3x10^8 But how do you work out what T or To is by using the 4.5 light years...
