Various reasons, most of them related to the Special Theory of Relativity.
1. To speed something up so that it even reaches the speed of light (from an initial speed that is slower than light) would require infinite energy. (However, this doesn't preclude hypothetical particles that ONLY travel faster than the speed of light.)
2. If it is were possible to travel faster than the speed of light, it would also be possible to travel to the past. This is due to the definition of "simultaneity" in the Special Theory of Relativity. If you ever read stories about time travel, you would know that time travel may result in many contradictory situations, so it seems doubtful at the least.
What else can I help you with?
Is it possible for anything to travel faster than the speed of light?
According to the theory of relativity, nothing with mass can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum.
Can anything travel faster than the speed of light through a vacuum?
No.
Is it possible for anything to be moving faster than the speed of light?
According to the theory of relativity, it is not possible for anything with mass to travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum.

Do asteroids travel faster than light?
No, asteroids do not travel faster than light. Light travels at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second) in a vacuum, which is the maximum speed at which anything can travel in our universe. Asteroids typically travel much slower than the speed of light.
Is there anything in the universe that can travel faster than the speed of light?
No, never! it is disproved by Einstein
What is the name of medium which is faster than light?
It is my understand that there is not anything that can travel faster than the speed of light. Perhaps ones thoughts are faster though I am not sure on that point. Robert Tachyons are theoretical particles that will cease to exist if they slow down to light speed.
What is superluminal travel?
Travel faster than the speed of light. By definition, Superluminal is "Faster-than-light (FTL)"
