Is it possible for someone to travel faster than light?

Answer 1

Absolutely not, according to the general theory of relativity it takes an infinite amount of energy to achieve lightspeed, also as an object accelerates it gains mass until at lightspeed it becomes infinitly large, also time dilation kicks in big time at about 80%c and eventually if you keep accelerating time will start to reverse (grandfather paradox). On the lighter side the special theory of relativity allows us to manipule the space time continuum to beat light to a destination ie wormholes, warpdrive, gravity drive, infinite improbability drive, ect
