Assume ships A and B synchronize clocks first and then they take off in opposite directions with a high relative speed. It is my understanding the observer on ship A says the clock on ship B is running slowly and the observer on ship B says the clock on ship A is running slowly. If the two ships manage to dock together the next day, would the clocks on both ships be the same or would they be different? Is it possible for one ship to age more or less than the other?

I am trying to better understand the twins paradox. If a twin takes off in a ship, wouldn't that twin observe the clocks on earth ticking more slowly while (during the same trip) the twin on earth observes the twin's clock aboard the ship moving more slowly?

Hopefully someone can help clarify what I am missing. Thanks in advance.
