"A day will come when some whiz kid cracks the code that enables faster than light travel"

I tend to disagree with that, in the sense that there was no dark age of physics. No one has successfully broken any law of physics--there have only been modifications to it, such as Einstein's modifications to Newton's laws of gravity. I personally don't think the speed of light can ever be exceeded, no more than you can travel backwards in time. Both concepts produce paradoxes which cannot be resolved.

We will be exceeding the speed of space not speed of light.

We've been in a dark age of physics for a long time now, but you wouldn't know it because mainstream academia filters out all dissent and breakthrough discoveries that upset the prevailing paradigm.

Deep Academia is no different than the Deep State. There's a whole unseen rebellion of deplorable physicists and cosmologists out there today.

Accurately speaking, no one has modified physical law, either. All anyone has ever done is to refine theory to better describe the immutable physical reality.
