Kip Thorn had a team of grad students working on what the universe looks like at speeds above c. Made quite a bit of ground too. Appears it may be possible. Certainly, because of quantum entanglement, the speed of information is way, way, way faster than light.

Why that is? No idea.

All I know is once two particles are entangled, and I change the nature of one, the other changes instantaneously regardless of distance.

That pretty much hurts my head, as does the double slit experiment.

When I’m not looking at it, the protons act like baseballs. When I’m looking at it, the protons act like waves.

And people are like, “No, science is always clean and logical, with an answer for everything!”

True enough, if you’re lucky enough to stumble across that truth and recognize it for what it is.

My understanding is that once you observe said particles, their properties change anyway. What does that mean? I don't know, I'm not a physicist.
