Time doesn't really pass or travel at all. Only the measuring of it changes.
It may seem to be 5 years from one point of reference and 50 years for another due to the way our measuring of time works.... but it's objectively the same amount of time that's passed if time even passes at all. Time doesn't need an observer. So relative to 'their time frame' doesn't apply to objective time.
Exactly.
Again, science can only measure what seems to be the case, not what's actually the case. It can only measure any particular observer's perspective it can't measure actual time.

And technically, no the cartoon isn't a joke, it's pretty accurate.
But again, we're off topic. Time travel and time relativity are two different things.
