There are strong indications that Einstein's theory of relativity maybe 'wrong' the theory is that nothing can exceed the speed of light.
Scientists in CERN Switzerland found that a neutrino beam fired from a particle accelerator near Geneva to a lab in Italy traveled 60 nanoseconds faster than the speed of light.
Einstein's special relativity theory underlies "pretty much everything in modern physics," said John Ellis, a theoretical physicist at CERN who was not involved in the experiment. "It has worked perfectly up until now." And part of that theory is that nothing is faster than the speed of light.
The scientific world will have to recalculate and rethink many 'facts' if the theory of relativity is flawed.
