This is why I'm rude to you: because you're completely ineducable. We've already "unlocked the secrets," and in addition to literally thousands of experiments which confirm the geometric facts of space-time [including the impossibility of superluminal travel] we have never seen an effect in the present produced by a cause in the future. Space travelers moving faster than light-speed would produce such artifacts.

This isn't an engineering problem. What you're saying is 100% equivalent to saying "Someday, we'll violate the Uncertainty Principle if we just set our minds to it," or "Someday, we'll create a Perpetual Motion Machine of the First Kind; 10,000 years of human history convinces me we will."

No.

We won't.

You sound like that clown who wanted to close the U.S. patent office 100 years ago, because "everything's been invented".

Your kind of thinking holds humankind back, because it rails against and resists exploration, query, and imagination. Your close-minded, dogmatic approach to the universe is literally suppressive to discovery and enlightenment. Science has advanced in spite of your type, not because of you. The great minds in our history fought people like you, every step of the way.
