Theoretically, a massless particle can move slower than light. But then it'll have zero energy and momentum, so it won't be able to interact with anything.

- MattPalmer1086 2y agoThanks. The equations give the answer in the end, I found this explanation the best [1]. The only way to get a zero mass is if the energy is zero, or the velocity is c.
