Your analogy is inapt. What you are talking about is closer to the literally dozens of requests to patent perpetual motion machines that the patent office receives every year. Naturally, the patent office knows enough not to issue or even investigate them.

The same thing is true of superluminal travel. It violates basic laws of physics, concerning which there are no doubts.

Put your money where your mouth is, or go away.

Fred, while I respect your advanced level of education in the area of physics, I also know that the physical sciences have never stopped advancing, and that history is strewn with examples of new discoveries that re-wrote science texts around the world. It’s happened again and again, and will continue to happen, as man increases his understanding of our universe.

Laws of nature that are now considered immutable, will one day be broken or bent by man to suit his will and purposes. Such has it ever been, and will always be.
