You have the math to calculate SR time dilation
Now when moving north just replace the -(minus) with the plus (+) - this is a kindergarten lesson

Well, I don't think anyone is surprised.
Bjarne:
The time dilation equation gives a proportion. To reverse that proportion you need to take the multiplicative inverse not the additive inverse.
Is that why you subtract from one for the first value on your chart? If it is then it is even more wrong as the additive inverse of a number when added to that number equals 0 not 1. There is probably a name for such numbers that add to one but I haven't been able to find it.
