EINSTEIN WRONG: Particles Clocked Moving Faster Than Light at CERN
One of the absolute pillars of science - that nothing can go faster than the speed of light - appears to have been upended by a sub-atomic particle in an experiment in Switzerland.

Scientists at the world's largest physics lab outside Geneva said on Thursday they have clocked neutrinos travelling faster than light.

That's something that according to Albert Einstein's 1905 special theory of relativity - the famous E=mc2 equation - just doesn't happen.

If proven correct this shatters mainstream physics foundations.

All - people are getting hyped about this and missing the obvious. If true, time is SLOWING DOWN....thus allowing the particle to travel 'faster'.

What if something is going on with our sense of time, and light in our section of space time has slowed down.... think about it

Interesting news if fully confirmed by peer review, and will just add a new dimension to further scientific study..it might supercede older theories, but that's the fun, because nothing in science is ever conclusive or set in stone unless fully proven.

With all due respect, Einstein THEORISED that nothing could go faster than light. It's only all his concrete-headed followers who pretend it's a law and shout down anyone who dares say otherwise.

Einstein went to his grave unsatisfied with his own theories. He just got a Jesus-like following after his death.

Wouldn't entanglement theory have already suggested that?

Also; couldn't a 'thought' travel faster than the speed of light?

Time is a constant but clocks aren't so the clocks could be slowing down but Time can't. wait It's known as a Timordial Illusion, which is what occurred with the Time Dialation experiments. clocksmiley

All science is theory...the fact that people believe that we (as a society) know everything is complete B.S.

For the longest time, people believed that the sun revolved around the earth.

This is just another step to realizing that we know very little about ourselves and the Universe.

Greetings:

The "Speed Of Light" Is A Terrestrial Made Up Thing ... A "Constant" In Which Terrestrial Scientists Can Build A Concensus ... Can Make Agreement !!

"Light" Of That Which You Call Such Energy ... Is Variable In "Perceived" "Speed, Distance & Motion" !! ... It Acts & Reacts Differently To Various Things/Phenomena ... As Such The "Travel Time" Is Always Different ... Therefore There Is No Constant !!

As To "Albert Einstein" His Works Were Not His Own ... Only Works & Theories That Were From "Other Sources" ... Namely Other Beings/Persons !! ... Of His "Name Recognition" Credit For Such "Theories" ... Belong To & With The Originators ... Not The Onces Who Had "Moved In" & Took Their Ideas !!

Farewell For Now !!

SOMETHING IS FISHY HERE!

How the do you measure something going faster than light? For example, why would you know to even allow the measurement of such a ridiculous notion of faster than light travel.

Something tells me they knew that faster than light travel is possible.

Either way, worrth the 15 Billion for CERN

Exactly!

Science is happy to be proven wrong. The pursuit of knowledge through fact finding, and disproving, is the only way to reach truth.

Assuming, or just believing, is the realm of the fool.

Space is REAL!

Time is REAL!

To travel faster than light speed, you fold Space by traveling THRU Time, because Time is a separate dimension from Space. thumbs By dew'n that, you can transverse any amount of Space in finite. math_smiley

No, you don't understand the definition of the word "theory" when it comes to science. Hint: it is almost exactly the opposite meaning that you are trying to use.
