It's not a contradiction. Maximum speeds for information transfer in communications and computers is in the .67c zone. Research that could speed that up closer

It's not a contradiction. Maximum speeds for information transfer in communications and computers is in the .67c zone. Research that could speed that up closer to 1c is possible (and welcome), which doesn't mean information will ever, at least within the current paradigm of physics, travel > 1c.
- whoisburbansky 5y agoAh, fair enough, I misread the editorial claim, and stand corrected. Thanks for pointing that out!
- skunkworker 5y agoIsn't the .67c usually around the limitations of currently deployed optical fiber, but hollow core gets to .997c although it has distance limitations.
