No, you’re stating that to be the case if something travels faster than light - I’m merely asking for an explanation of whay that HAS to be the case. Intuition says something traveling faster than light will naturally arrive before something traveling slower - I can’t see how the leap is made to that FTL object arriving BEFORE it was sent.

The people here were jumping to the conclusion that “faster than the speed of light” meant time travel. Nonsense. Maybe the speed of light can be exceeded, but I would like to see how it is proven. Measuring a delta time between two prisms only 3 feet apart seems far fetched.
