A similar article from 2000: http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/generalscience/faster_than_c_000719.html Ever heard of Schrödinger's cat? Fun stuff. ^_^

Isn't it a pretty commonplace phenomenon in quantum physics? So I'm not really sure what these scientists are actually saying. Kind of a vauge article.

	Report to Moderator ^ tap that! I'm out of Order! O.O ! damn, I came here when i was 12 =O

badz78 268 cr points Send Message: M Offline	Permalink Reply Quote Posted 8/16/07 Well.. the better invent materials tough enough to handle the speed of light. Not to mention the human body cant withstand the rigors of speed of light.. lol! talk about disintegration ! Teleportation ? now that may be another theory. as for quantum physics so far for mankind is the most advanced in theoritical n practical use advancement. Until someone comes up with new materials and new theories... all the talk about speed of light.. is still pretty far off.

(Thanks for putting it up and all it looks kinda cool and ill check it out BUT.) 1. METRIC i really dislike the British imperial measurements, if the us wants to use them fine however all scientific calculations should be done in metric for the sake of simplicity 2. SIGNIFICANT FIGURES measured quantities should be expressed to the correct degree of accuracy, for example the speed of light is 3.00x10^8 m/s where m is METERS. (there I'm done now thanks for posting this) edit: I've read it, wait a minute thats it, nothing else i was hoping for a few details!
