Marc205 Occasional Poster Location: Perth Registered: September 2004	Re: Causal loops Wed, 05 October 2005 09:43 Dr_Love wrote on Mon, 19 September 2005 06:54 there is a theoretical item (cant for the life of me remember what it is called - started with a 't' i think) That travels WAY faster than light and would take an infinite amount of braking energy to bring its speed down to the speed of light. If these this substance does indeed exist and we are able to harness its energy, then we could travel faster than light. The tachyon? They travel faster than light because they have imaginary mass. (Given E=mc^2, their mass is a multiple of SQRT(-1).) They aren't a source of energy per se, but an interesting field of study. There are reports of a tachyon with real mass, however it was observed as a result of a cosmic ray bombardment and has yet to be confirmed or reproduced. Because of the way "traditional" tachyons work, it would take an infinite amount of energy to "slow" the tachyon to the speed of light, because tachyons become more energetic at higher speeds. You get energy out of them by making them move faster, not slower. [Updated on: Wed, 05 October 2005 09:45] [Report message to a moderator]
