Physicists operating the Large Hadron Collider at the CERN laboratory near Geneva may have to rethink their claim that particles can travel faster than the speed of light after a source suggested that a bad connection affected the measurements.

I love it when a study supports a theory so well. It's exciting to me. The other day, I ran the statistical analyses for the study of a colleague not knowing what many of the labels of the demographic variables meant. When I told the principle researcher that there was a significant influence on the outcome based on Variable STP, the researchers said, "That's great because that's what prior literature says!" I was like, "Sweet."

Can't find a source on my mobile but they also found another glitch that could actually mean the particles where going even faster than measured, until this whole experiment is repeated in a different location the whole thing is still very much up in the air...

Einstein's theories only state that the speed of light is the fundamental speed in our own universe. If there really are objects that can travel faster then the speed of light then the odds are that they are traveling through another universe or another dimension, which doesn't conflict with Einstein's theories in any way.

@ OP: not surprising, really.
