Einstein was right after all - neutrinos didn't go faster than light

The mere fact that the experiment’s results were so consistent suggested that one of two things had to be true: either the neutrinos really were going faster than the speed of light and Einstein’s theory would have to be revised or that there was something wrong with the experiment, which was more likely than a single experiment destroying the framework of modern physics. The results now seem to indicate that there was indeed something wrong with the experiment itself, and oddly, the flaw may actually reinforce Einstein’s theory.

Well, so much for warp drives. For now.

Dang. Ah well, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I'm glad that is cleared up!

Ahh.. those lazy neutrinos.

Curses, now we'll have to look for another way to defeat Einstein and his annoying relativity...

Gee can they give themselves any more wiggle room?

Never draft in foreign labour

Offcourse you can go faster that light, haven't you seen Star Trek

This changes everything.

Maybe one day in the future, our scientist will find something, that gives us the possiblity to fly faster than light.

Maybe the answer is not a matter of speed, but of place; a quantum "jump" rather than linear travel over a period of time...
