Faster than C

Share this page

I've always thought that theory was B.S. First off, if something is faster than the speed of light, you can't see it to say if it's faster or not. Secondly, if we try and measure it electronicaly, and electricity travels at the speed of light; how are you supposed to measure something fatser than what you are measuring with? It'll be gone before it even gets there.

Besides, before things are, they already were.

Can't get much faster than that.

String theory holds some pretty groovey implications too.

You should try that as a defense for a speeding ticket from being clocked by LIDAR.

But if you're driving faster that C, the lidar cant keep up!
 
Ooof. We're goin' into uncharted waters.

Back to Zukov's: "The Dancing Wu-Li Masters"... specifically: "I Clutch My Ideas".

If FermiLab can duplicate it there's gonna be some changes! :laugh:

Exactly, you can't C it. :laugh:
 
I like the fact that it sot it 400 miles thru a "tunnel"
