And how have we been able to prove that? spock



science says the maximum speed of light is an absolute...light doesn't go faster than light...

if your gong faster than sound waves travel, lets say mach 4, and honk the horn, what happens?

So, all our controlled tests up till now have been done from what is relatively speaking a fixed platform.

What the Hell else do we have that even remotely travels at 186,000 miles per second. think


electricity, gamma rays, xrays, gravity??

shiek i honestly don't know how fast our current particle acceleraters are capable of

Yes Moe and how do we strap a source of light onto these?

measuring the electrons, of course...

if your on a spaceship traveling at light speed, would the internal circuits still work? if electricity travels at light speed, would it work the same inside the spaceship?

NOW YOUR THINKING LIKE ME MOE . . . !

How do we actually do controlled tests about the potential speed of something, when we don't even have an absolute constant medium of travel or projection?

What-is-more 186,000 miles per second is a ball-park guess to the speed of light.

When will have a platform that'll differentiate just a FEW THOUSAND miles per hour?
