Operatic ping.
We don’t serve your kind in here!
Perhaps they used the same mathematicians they use in balancing euro-budgets in Greece, Italy, Spain, etc. - most likely Harvard educated, like our treasury dept “geniuses”.
So, basically what this research is showing is that WARP speed travel is theoretically possible.
Hopefully we will meet the Vulcans before we find out there are Klingons around Uranus.
Have they taken conscientiousness, a variable, into the equation? Is this what they wanted to observe? Where there "disbelievers" attending during the experiment who wanted to observe an opposite result?
In other words, did they find Schroeder's cat ALIVE in the machine, because deep inside - they really wanted to?
Before we start discussing how wrong Einstein was, these scientists first have to define ‘travel’, as in ‘traveling faster than light’.
The neutrinos aren’t traveling in the sense that they occupy space between point A to point B, which is what Einstein meant.
The neutrinos are jumping interdemensionally from A to B. Essentially, the neutrino is in two places at the same time. This is not traveling in the Einstein sense of travel. IMO
Big deal. I’m so fast, I can turn off the light switch, and get under the covers before the lights go out.
Neutrinos, they are very small.
They have no charge and have no mass
And do not interact at all.
The Earth is just a silly ball
To them, through which they simply pass,
Like dustmaids down a drafty hall
Or photons through a sheet of glass.
(John Updike, “Cosmic Gall”)
So I am to understand then that, for example, the theory of gravity is just that? A theory? So much for the “laws” of physics then.
Neutrino propulsion.
You can ignore the second order effects.
I find it works sufficiently well to get me from planet to planet.
These dramatic statements are so bullsh**. So what if the experiment proves true? YOU or any other object can’t get past the speed of light in normal space without doing some incredible stuff we have no idea about yet, or using infinite energy, which we will never have.
Look, we went to the moon using Issac Newton. Doesn’t mean he was wrong, just not perfectly accurate. And for our little meager human existence, Newton still works, Einstein works, and they will continue to work for quite a while.
Can’t we just say that neutrinos are the exception that proves the rule?
Pinging the list.. CERN found neutrinos traveling at a speed faster than light.
