[QUOTE="RCP, post: 279614, member: 186733"] Well I have to say I've been reading this post and cracking up laughing over the debate of the pros and cons of space, time and speed. Having spent many years watching Star Trek, UFO and other sci-fi programs I have no doubt in my mind that the speed of light will be exceeded in just the same way as every previous speed record was broken. Take for example the speed of sound which was proved beyond reasonable doubt in the 1930's 1940's and 1950's (history isn't my strong point!) could not be exceeded using the technology available at the time -- Until it was! Just because some scientist from years ago said it could not be broken is like blinkering your sight. For example, If you had spoken to someone in the 1960's and told them that you would be making phone calls without the use of wires they would have told you to stop daydreaming! - It's technology that holds us back. Just because we haven't discovered it yet doesn't mean it can't exist!!! Think this is a cracking thread, well done to whoever started it :) [/QUOTE]
