Quantum tunneling does not break the speed of light. It just appears to make something move through a medium faster than classical physics would allow, but it doesn't break the laws of quantum mechanics.

Without more info on that experiment, I'd say there's nothing Star Trek happening. And IIRC, in Star Trek the speed of light isn't violated because "warp speed" is actually bending space-time in order to travel faster than light w/o actually moving faster than light.

Wow Scott, that's some pretty deep "trekkie" insight there...

jus' sayin.

It's called a warp field smarty-pants.

Well, my pants certainly contain something capable of bending space-time.

Lame.

Yeah well I once ate an entire pan of Rice Krispy Treats that in "theory" should not have been able to fit in my stomach.

That's like a Bully's calzone. Next time you order one, hold it up next to your gut... then figure out how in the hell you can eat the whole thing. It's like putting a football inside you.

ShawnS · 2007-08-16, 05:02 PM

I miss Bully's so much.

I like Star Wars better now too... it's gritty. Well, as long as you through out every movie except Empire. But the few books I've read and the video games (X-wing, Tie Fighter, etc) are awesome.
