Thus, photons cannot time travel, and moving information around at faster-than-light speeds is impossible.

FORBES: Light's Limit: There's No Getting Around It

Relativity-worshipping physicists can (and probably will) escape the faster-than-light neutrinos dilemma by dodging GPS and thus dodging relativistic time equations.

FORBES: New Evidence Casts Doubt On Faster-Than-Light Neutrinos

At a fundamental level, it also supports an "add-on" to this Big Bang theory known as inflation, which postulates that in the very first moments of its existence the Universe opened up in an exponential manner - faster than light itself.

Everything takes a good hit here, from the absurdity of common sci-fi tropes like faster than light travel, ninjas, travel agents and tourists.

FORBES: The Weekly E-Reading List

The scientific community held its collective breath when research published by CERN suggested that the little guys had been caught traveling at an Einstein-defying 3.7 miles per second faster than light.

ENGADGET: CERN admits faulty kit to blame for speedy neutrinos, says it's all relative

This, Dr Levoy explains, is mainly down to the processing power of devices, such as camera-equipped smartphones, growing faster than the capacity of sensors which record light data.

ECONOMIST: Monitor

Just as you can write a great sci-fi TV series by entirely ignoring all of the physics of faster than light travel.

FORBES: Noahpinion's Two Errors About Free Trade: Yes, Unilateral Free Trade Is The Answer

While data and information move at the speed of light, tangible three-dimensional products are moving faster and in greater volumes than ever before.
