Is there "thing" faster then speed of light?

[RFTP]

I'm really confused cuz I heard somewhere that there is something faster then speed of light, how is that possible?

 

[Vaudeville]

the mind.... nah never heard of anything faster, who knows.

 

[Glockmatic]

Einstein said there was nothing faster than light, only thing that may be faster is the Star Ship Enterprise (WARP 6!)

 

[Cooper]

no...its the fastest thing known to man

 

[RFTP]

He said that nothing can accelerate as the speed of light? Isn't that a bit different?

 

[Salar]

superman

 

[Glockmatic]

superman is faster then a speeding bullet not light!

If there was something faster than the speed of light then we would not be able to see it.

How fast is the speed of light?

 

[Glockmatic]

299,792,458 metres per second or 186,282.4 miles per second

 

[haunted]

299,792,458 metres per second or 186,282.4 miles per second

I'd say no then.

If there is our primitive technologies will have not have the capacities to record or observe it

Yes, it's possible. Quantum particles travel faster than light because when they "tunnel" through a barrier, it takes place faster than light. And it's been measured. Plus, quantum particles are able to communicate with each other instantaneously over distances.

According to the special theory of relativity, you can't start out with a speed less than that of light and go faster and faster until you pass the barrier because time stands still at the speed of light itself, while length contracts to nothing. But it's only the actual speed of light itself that marks this forbidden territory. If something existed that always traveled faster than light relative to us, it would travel backward in time.

There are, in fact, solutions to the equations of the special theory corresponding to particles which always travel faster than light. They have been called tachyons. Though still hypothetical and embarrassing to most physicists, they are not ruled out by the special theory.

Did u just make all that up?

Did u just make all that up?

lol

 

[Jokerman]

Yes, I did.

theoretically, you can also travel instantly from one point to another in space if you bend the space-time continuum. You can then be in 2 points in space at the same time

Jokerman you crazy fucker lol

No nothing is faster than the speed of light

 

[Illuminattile]

As a wise man once said "The only thing faster than the speed of light is the speed of dark".

As a body approaches the speed of light, it's mass increases exponentially so that as it reaches the speed of light, its mass is infinite and therefore it requires an infinite amound of energy to move, which is needless to say impossible. This doesn't mean that you can't travel faster than the speed of light, just that you can't travel at the speed of light.

 

[not really ken]

^^ what do you think of what Jokerman said?
