Recently, a research paper was published by Erik Lentz, PhD in Physics at the University of Washington, on achieving superluminal speeds without violating physical laws or needing negative energy. This astounding paper was published in the extremely prestigious journal, Quantum Gravity. This article explains the intriguing physics behind it and if our current technology can help us achieve it. Why is  299,792,458 m/s the speed limit of our universe? We always have been taught that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light but what is the prime reason behind it? Why can’t we break this speed limit and travel at superluminal speed? Well, according to Einstein’s special relativity,…
