Your statement makes things sound a bit confusing.

To clarify, if you are inside the ship, 152 years will pass.

Edit: Nevermind. Time travel is stupid.

No, the people in the ship will experience less time then 152 years. Relativity tells us the faster an observer is moving, the slower it moves through time.
