        A wild but well thought out guess. Even I could have thought it up should I have been so inclined. Light is fast, common sense. Too bad he's been proven wrong....

          Something like atoms or whatever........

          Democritus was born around 460 B.C. and ventured the theory of atoms.  THAT impresses me!

            The fact is that Einstein and others have been mistaken since we now know that time is mutable and this affects all time based equations. One of the earliest events to demonstrate this fact was the  result of placing an atomic clock in orbit. If time is so variable the universe is stranger than anyone dreamed it could be. Coming to terms with this will likely take several generations to understand and apply confidently.

              Quantum Theory  mechanics kinda blow Einstein theory out of the water.  In theory, through Quantum Mechanics faster than light is possible. But quite far fetched as the target device must be there before the travel begins, so how do we place the target device billions of light years away so we may test this theory??

                The speed of light is based on time. Since time is variable, no constant exists for time and space unless one is chosen as a relative constant and thus is only generally relative. Time is thus, an explorable variable. The question has long been "How to compress cooking time."

                Robert, I watched a documentary a few weeks ago about space and time, Quantum Physics, it was really deep and thought provoking. I wish I could remember the title, I am sure you would enjoy it. gave me goosebumps the possibilities and what the future may bring. Also, amazing of how we have exponentially grown in technology in just 150 years. The last 30 years is frightening. .

                Things do get rather goofy in the world of quark imagineering, The SiFy crowds are appearing to be going radically coo-coo. What usually happens at times like this is similar to the return of a teacher to room full of up-roaring children. So be on the look-out for....God only knows what....and let's be very sure not to do anything that looks remotely like war. War like and unwilling to compromise end in cultural death.

                Yep Robert, can't be doing with any of that cultural death stuff myself.
