CERN claims faster-than-light particle measured !!! shin this pit!!!
Scientists at the world's largest physics lab say they have clocked subatomic particles traveling faster than light.

Nothing is supposed to go faster than light. But scientists say that neutrinos - one of the strangest well-known particles in physics - smashed past the cosmic speed barrier of 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers).

If true.... Einstein was wrong, it's all false and we can go faster than light. Look out stars we are coming to ruin your worlds soon.

Wow, let's dig into this. That AP story was just a teaser.

Good find OP.

Re: CERN claims faster-than-light particle measured !!! shin this pit!!!
HAHAHA! From the article:

Scientists agree if the results are confirmed, that it would force a fundamental rethink of the laws of nature, starting with the special theory of relativity proposed by Einstein in 1905.

Special relativity, which helps explain everything from black holes to the Big Bang theory about the origins of the universe, underlies "pretty much everything in modern physics," Ellis said. "It has worked perfectly up until now."

Re: CERN claims faster-than-light particle measured !!! shin this pit!!!
really interesting find OP thanks. but guys dont get all nuts over this find. from the article itself:

CERN says a neutrino beam fired from a particle accelerator near Geneva to a lab 454 miles (730 kilometers) away in Italy traveled 60 nanoseconds faster than the speed of light. Scientists calculated the margin of error at just 10 nanoseconds, making the difference statistically significant.
 Quoting: AP


10 out of 60 nanoseconds can be a huge margin of error

Why not get excited? Maybe you should have copy/pasted the whole paragraph...

But given the enormity of the find, they still spent months checking and rechecking their results to make sure there was no flaws in the experiment.

Re: CERN claims faster-than-light particle measured !!! shin this pit!!!
global pin suggested, this is huge.

"This speed is approximately 186,282 miles (299,792 kilometres) per second. It is the maximum speed at which all energy, matter, and information in the universe can travel."

this proves once again we don't know shit and everything we're taught as pure fact is questionable

This is really huge if confirmed. It would really rewrite the laws of physics.

Funny enough, I've been saying this for years, I don't see any reason why the speed of light would have to be the highest possible speed in the universe. Actually it's a ridiculous claim if you think about it.

Civilization, here we come!

what this means, is neutrinos from a supernova will get here a LOT faster than the light or gamma rays.

So after shock I thought about it...

What implications does this have for time travel ?
Is it possible to create a neutrino drive and go back in time ?

if we are projections from the edge of the universe, WE are faster than the speed of light, by a fair bit.

 Quoting: SickScent


no flaws in the experiment, nothing about flaws in the measurements

and not to get excited over sensationalist headlines about science. they are 99% of the time just that sensationalist to get people jumping up and down, and then the real scientist have to get out of their dusty closets and explain how it all works

Einstein's SOL is "instantaneous", hence not being able to go faster than.

Wonder what its like to pick up a phone, and before you grab the receiver, you have already had the conversation with the person... This really makes time seem like a fluid/river, where you can go back forward. Dosnt seem like we are stuck in this frame anymore... of course if its true. Implications are so huge, what would it be like if you could move through time effortlessly ? What would be your purpose then ?

If neutrinos can, there could be particles that are timeless, that exist not in the dimension of time but outside of it..... Just opens huge doors
