Particles faster than light?
Interesting discovery.
http://www.usatoday.com/tech/science...ght/50518790/1 Scientists will certainly try to verify/understand this phenomenon. It could either be some error or entirely new chapter of Physics. |

Speed Limit 186,000 Mps broken? It might be more than anew chapter if their calculations turn out to be correct, you might see everything we know today rewritten!

I'm still stuck on a 5kg block and a 3kg block attached to the ends of a rope over a frictionless pulley...

Well, I guess we will have to wait for other researchers to repeat the experiment for independent confirmation. There have been a number of "scientific breakthroughs" that have been prematurely announced to the public in recent years that were proved to be false. But if this turns out to be true, it sure could have some dramatic implications.

Im actually hoping its an error just for the sake of modern physics ... this would not be a breakthrough but a MAJOR hole/set back in our understanding of everything!

If it's proved to be true, then Mr. Einstein won't like it. |

If modern physics was wrong (or anything for that matter) wouldn't you want to move forward and try to understand the truth? It's what science is all about. We'd be nothing without that curiosity and willingness to be wrong about something because as long as somebody is right it's an accomplishment. Discoveries are made all the time that disprove previous things. They just aren't at a scale that this could be. |

Yea I dont think he would lol! Edit: Quote:
Second, you make a good argument I however disagree. If you call 200 years of scientific progression being rendered complete garbage and having to rewrite everything we thought we knew after simple newton mechanics a break through than that's good, you are an optimist. However this would not be moving forward but moving back. Of course if modern physics was wrong I would want to understand the truth, I just am just hoping it is not!
