  • @wearesratstuff51 oh I see very good, thank you for clarifying that.

  • @Development2112 You're welcome. Sorry for the disappointing news lol but there are still more tests that will be done to check.

  • @wearestarstuff51 no I mean the resent test at CERN, they fired a particle from one lab to another and found it cam out around 60 nano seconds sooner then there other tests show light should, ( i suspect they've accounted for the time alteration )

  • @Development2112 Yea, that's the OPERA experiment. The particles started at CERN and were sent to Italy. From what I've been hearing from physicists, it looks like there were systematic errors in the experiment so it doesn't look promising so far.

  • Well we've now heard that the light barrier is broken so this some day may be laughed at as we laugh at filling someone with hilium for flight.

  • @Development2112 If you're referring to the OPERA experiment, it's looking like there were systematic errors in the experiment. Chances are, relativity is safe for now.

  • The hydron collider might get close to the speed of light but i have blue prints for a device that will get to the speed of light. I call it '' a lamp''

  • That neutrino has gone faster than light now. HA

see all

  • @boxingisbest hold on, correct me if i am mistaken but if we live our lives at very high speed relative to the speed on earth wouldn't we live longer relative to earth?

  • So... what you'r saying is that I can make a TARDIS?

  • @LordDuck101

    with no further confirmation and what-so-ever, most of the science community consider the experiment from OPERA an error, so no, the neutrinos from CERN LHC probably didnt go faster than light

  • point a laser pointer on the moon and flick your wrist and the beam will move across the surface 3x the speed of light.

  • @lusterwings No that is one of science biggest misunderstandings of all time ,you do not travel in time if you go faster than speed of light. You would only be able to see light who has not yet reached you, thus you are only able to observe not actually physically being in the past

  • @WeAreStarStuff51 Systematic errors? or Einstein ass kissers,jealous colleges, this is a experiment whom has been undergoing severe testing over several years! looking for any error possible and now it has also been tested once more once again proving that the speed of light is broken by these neutrinos WHAT MORE DO THEY NEED? ohh yeah i forgot they need solid systematic testing proving that the earth is not flat and in the center of the universe

  • so these particles are accelerated to light speed, and begin to travel in time, and also if you were near a black hole, you would be traveling in time too and time would slow down? if you travel near the speed of light, do you slow down too?

  • @Koolboy276 OOOOO idk...he's paralyzed?! U dumbass

  • if he so smart how cam he cant walk
