Actually something does travel at the speed of light. Photons. We need to build a ship entirely of photons, then we could have photon torpedoes and destroy the Kingons.

Here's my theory. Build a photon ship with headlights mounted on it. When you reach the speed of light, turn on the headlights. Now you've got light travelling at the speed of light squared. Turns relativity on its head.
