You are packing for a trip to another star, and on your journey you will be traveling at a speed of 0.99c. Can you sleep in a smaller cabin than usual, because you will be shorter when you lie down? Group of answer choices The statement in the question seems wrong as a speed of 0.99c is not achievable. Yes, my height will be contracted No, because effect of gravity will be reduced gradually as I leave the earth surface and head to the star. No. From my perspective I'm at rest with respect to the cabin, so have the same usual height
