Answer:

D-slower than the clock on the rocket.

Explanation:

In 1905, Albert Einstein devised the theory that states that laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and that the speed of light in a vacuum was independent of the motion of all observers. This conclusion is generally referred to as the theory of special relativity. It defined an entirely new framework for physics as well as proposed new concepts of space and time.

He discovered that space and time were interwoven into a single continuum known as space-time. According to him, events that occur at the same time for one observer could occur at different times for another, hence the answer.
