Is that the number of people that visited 12clicks sites?

LOL shows how much you know Ronnie... I posted that while on break, now I am home from my job.

$1 says Bachman or Pat Robertson try to make the argument that 'If einstein can be wrong so can Darwin' as part of a renewed push for 'intelligent design.'

It could be a monumental discovery but people will assign it their own agenda even faster than a neutrino can move.

interesting story

299,792,459 m/s!

Is this like when my friend gets in a wreck and txt's/calls me about it? Phones = first time travel device!

were you one of the scientists consulted for the experiment?...did they invite you and serve you ice cream?

:1orglaugh

We will have to send them to "Happy Time Traffic School" to get their speeding ticket removed or they will see their insurance go up for sure.

I'm sure breaking the speed limit of light will be a major fine; especially, if it occurred in a school zone.

Now if they could just make my Internet connection a little bit fucking faster I would be happy.

the faster you travel towards the speed of light the slower time passes relative to a stationary object. it is a way of future time travel, not of going to the past.

amazing article. thanks.

fiddy high speed records

Rough calcs
300 562 839 m / s
or 2.6 thousandths of a percent faster.

A. No, no it's not. This hasn't even started to be peer reviewed and can't even begin to be accepted as a new "fact" yet.
B. We know an incredible amount about how things "really work" and every year we add yet more knowledge.
C. No one said science is written in stone. Science is knowledge to the best available evidence, which is all we have to go on. There are no alternatives except unsubstantiated guesses or superstition so you'd be stupid not to have faith in it. It's the only reliable and testable framework we have of understanding the world. Science is how you're posting on a forum made of 1's and 0's.

Einstein believed speeds could go faster than light and even theorized what would happen if you did travel faster than light. You'd see time go backwards... in an abstract fashion.

"wow, they broke the speed of light at CERN"

big woop, sometimes when i'm upstairs and i fart my wife already has her gas mask on downstairs.

so yes i am saying my farts have the capability to move faster than the speed of light and actually travel back in time.

Lol.. you are genius.. You can "travel in time" by airplane, if you take an interconinental flight, its not science, just normal time adjustment across the world as we have the central time in London. Exact same thing would apply to the space if there were any central time set in one of all the planets.

This has nothing to do with physical time travelling, since you are not travelling through history. That would be possible if you traveled back in time in order to the "central time" which is same for everyone in the world ,since we dont know of any other civilisations in space anyway. Central time IS THE SAME FOR ALL PEOPLE NO MATTER HOW FAST AND WHERE YOU TRAVEL :error:1orglaugh

If you traveled to other planets faster than light, the central time will be the same in London for people on the Earth and for you ..no matter what you do :-)))

Its pretty hard to understand for you brain Mr. Einstein, I know.. :1orglaugh

At 10,000 times the speed of light you occupy all points in the universe simultaneously :2 cents:

Jesus Christ, first they invented the Internet now this. What the fuck are they doing over there?

Some more verification - quantum entanglement

What Einstein Got Wrong About the Speed of Light

Wow! If the results are correct, this news is absolutely HUGE in the world of physics.

This stuff is really amazing... Who knows what wonders we will discover in the future... :)

Is that a news for you? Particles faster than a speed of light are known since 20th century. Google for superbradyon.

Even a usual neutrino may have a speed of +25 ppm (0,0025% faster than a speed of light).

Hey brainiacs, this thread was started 4 fucking years ago.

Who cares when exactly it was started? Do you check every thread for the first post date? For real???

In 100 years, how different will science be with it's thoughts on physical laws?
Would be nice to know.

Already they're testing the theoretical limits of quantum entanglement for long distance communication. Effectively, once the initial contact is made (still a long way to go) communication could be instantaneous.

Thanks for pointing that out !

I am surprised how so many SMART people can't get it right actually reading and understanding what Einstein said and wrote.

That discovery does nothing to break the laws of physics.
Einstein used the speed of light as a standard because it traveled at the same speed per wavelength no matter where you are in the universe. He never claimed that it was the fastest thing. That was someone else's injection and I sure wish I could give them a piece of my mind because it has been the source of so much misunderstanding in later science.
Real time travel that everyone likes to think is possible, is not ! Einstein was only using the term as a "perception" from a particular point of view.
Time is the only unchangeable truth in the universe and we have no Physic's method of measuring it. Hence using the speed of light as a universal method of having a reference (like a clock is to you).

Yes. Because I not have shitty Russian education! I can read dates and not post on old thread like an imbecile. Your dad must be upset with a son like you.

Children really should understand the difference between theory and successful proof before speaking to adults

He can't help it, he has shitty Russian education. So glad to not be him.

amazing :pimp

Yeah, no

I see. Your parents were too poor to pay for your education. You are an uneducated idiot, right? Actually that's nothing to be proud about.

So that's why you have posted here (a few times in a row)? You just called yourself an imbecile, do you understand that? :disgust

Actually he has claimed it. This equation can not be solved when V > C.

At least in real (non-complex) numbers because it will be a square root of a negative number. I believe you have learned it in the school.

You're the fucking idiot that responded in a 4 yr old thread without checking the date, муда́к. Don't try to play it off like you're not a potato farmer. We all know.

You just posted here one more time, clown.

P.S. When a person refers himself as "we", he have to visit a doctor. That's not a good symptom...

It is known since nearly 100 years that looking at one object sometimes instantaneously affect another far-away object, due to particles entanglement. This easily also means that, if the 2 entangled particles are one million light years far from each other, and then you "touch" one particle and the other also changes instantaneously, rather than after a million years... this "transfer of something" was way faster than light. Now the question is just about doing proper experiments to verify this, and especially, doing applications.

For example, let's say you can "entangle" two quantum walkie talkie devices, with lots of consummable entangled (paired) particles. If you destroy a particle in device 1 it is gone also in device 2, for example, doing 010101 binary communication effectively, even if consummable. Then you load one device in a rocket and send that (with some patience) outside the solar system, the communication should work instant, rathe than with minutes of delay... earth sun is some 7 seconds light time, not much, but for more far locations this quite matters. But how useful, if it takes billion years to move a satellite at million light years of distance anyway?

Super easy to understand videos:

By the way the experiment was published on 24 August 2015:

http://arxiv.org/pdf/1508.05949v1.pdf

So it took the media 2 months to figure it :)

so basically an ansible..

it's a little creepy how we keep writing about the technologies we are just about to discover
