The time dilation occurs on a reference frame moving near light speed relative to a reference frame at rest. The intriguing thing is that the system at rest can also be considered the one moving and the other system can be the one at rest. It's all relative. So, what does that mean. Well, it means that the astronaut who goes out at near light speed and returns to find everyone has aged much faster than he has might find that he was the one to age faster. That's the time contraction paradox.
