Stating the obvious is fun.

Um...yeah! Photons don't, which is the basic unit of light. Hence why, until possibly now, we've come to the conclusion that nothing can accelerate to the speed of light, except for light itself.

And then when one comes back to reality, you realize how incredibly wrong you are. ;) Just saying. I'd rather rely on scientific advancements in knowledge than to remain fixated on age-old religious myths. At least we're in the process of knowing more, rather than remaining apathetic to knowledge itself.

UUUUUmmmm I don't know how my comment was interpreted as a religious statement. All i'm saying is us as humans don't know dick. When einstein's theory was first put out, it was mind boggling. Here we are years later and it could be wrong or partly wrong. We may be smart but being smart only means we should realize how much we really don't know.

Xactly. The knowledge that we're expanding is the known limits of our knowledge.

If the particles with a mass moved quicker than light, did they time travel???

Theory is if you can move faster than light, you can timetravel... these particles did...

I don't say they timetravelled, I asked if it wasn't what supposed to happen??
