The implications of such a discovery are so mind-boggling, however, that these same scientists immediately requested that other labs around the world try to replicate the experiment. Everyone knows that real scientists (like climatologists) bury the raw data, claim that their results are undeniable and set up the stake for a heretic burning for anyone who denies their claims.
A 60 nanosecond difference over 454 miles would be 0.0025% faster than the speed of light. There's lots of room for experimental error of that scale.

A 60 nanosecond difference over 454 miles Measuring 60 nsec differences on oscilloscopes is routine.
