Re: Breaking the light barrier

Because the closer you approach the speed of light, the more energy is required to speed you up. Is it possible to ever travel faster than light and what kind of crack pot solutions would there be around this if it holds true. Warp - Drive and Black Holes??/
Matter and Energy can not be accelerated to, or beyond, the speed of light. However, if you if you can find a way to travel from place to place without moving through space, then you could essentially "work around" the light speed barrier.
Unfortunatly, it is not within the realm of our current technology or science to travel without moving through space. So for the moment, we are limited to sublight travel speeds.
