WOOT! Scientist have claimed to break the faster than light speed XXX.

Also, there have been others "LAWS" of the universe that scientists claim are constant that have been PROVEN to be not constant within the last year or two. So STFU.

einstien never said you cannot go faster than light
he stated there was a barrier that cannot be crossed,meaning if a particle is already going faster it wont be able to decelerate to lower than the speed of light the same as a particle cant be accelerated to beyond it

its a devide between slower and faster

also its more than likley the results are incorrect,as the graitational lensing of the earth hasnt been taken into consideration(heavy objects can bend space time creating a type of lens with gravity)

Why wouldn't they take that into account? Just curious. Wouldn't that be 'obvious' with this type of experiment to note any discrepancies like that?

Geeze. Its so old this has already been refuted because they failed to account for a 60ns delay due to the GPS satellites used to measure this. Google it.

The fact of the matter is,
There are LAWS that exist in the UNIVERSE that points out that there is SOMEONE WHO PUT IT IN PLACE.

Namely God.

Time travel is not in the plans for Mortal, human beings.
Once to live and once to die and then the judgement.

LAWS don't just appear out of nowhere.
The very definition of LAW is that there is someone who put that intention in place.

That ORDER.

Someone, huh? BTW, what about the LAWS that we think are LAWS, but really aren't, because they can CHANGE?

Stop injecting your religious pyschobabble into a scientific investigation. It is not logical, or reasonable, and cannot be proven using the scientific method.

what?

They also forgot to account for the rotation of the earth. (Same principal as an optical gyro)

Well put

Old news.

Potato Earth is the Answer..

The Gravitational tug of the Planet differs depending upon ones' current Location.

Stupid Scientists.

Yes,I did use the Daily Mail for source : )

1) Doubtful that this is true.
Too many unexplained INTELLIGENT response phenomenon.....
ie...Civil War Soldiers still on battle field, people having personal experiences with spirit world....etc.
Time has yet to be figured out by science.
Many pieces of the puzzle are still missing.

2) What they discovered is a wormhole....a way to fold space.
By folding space it APPEARS that FASTER THAN LIGHT speeds have occurred.
Einstein's theory still holds true...and his theory allows for this.

I guess this now means warp drive has some chance ofbeing a reality sometime in the distant future. It has also been stated that during the BIG BANG matter and light traveled much faster than lights 186,000 mile per second speed limit. You would think that would have given someone the idea this was possible!

Actually, you guys are misunderstand Einstein. He said that EVERYTHING ALWAYS moves at the speed of light. You're moving that fast RIGHT NOW..

However, most of our movement is taking place along the TIME dimension.

As we shift more of our velocity along a different axis (dimension) our velocity in the time dimensions decreases. But our speed remains CONSTANT.

Thus you have relativity.

So remember ALL things move at the exact same speed in the universe AT ALL TIMES within 4 dimensions.

Our velocities are so slow in the 3 dimensions we never really notice time speeding up/slowing down..we'd have to shift a lot of velocity out of the time axis before we'd notice anything (for the shifter, not for you observers of course, you're still speeding along the time axis).

We can't "leave" the time axis completely...like we're stuck to it by the higg's particle or some similar mechanism.

Excellent explanation. Thank you.

I don't really recall Eintstein stating nothing could travel faster than light as a fact, but I do remember him theorizing it.

LOL

YOU GUYS ARE SO FUNNY> IT WENT FASTER THAN LIGHT< AND DID NOT TIME TRAVEL. ITs REFERANCE FRAME SLOWED DOWN ALLOWING IT TO MOVE FASTER THREW OUR REFERENCE FRAME> So we detected it early. Who is to say if it goes .000000000000001 faster than light, that we would see it before the experiment began because it would only move .000000000000001 into the future rite? There is two ways to look at this.
