People think that the speed of light would equal "infinite" speed. But I believe that they are mistaken. Technically, infinite speed would mean you would occupy every point in space and time simultaneously. Is this theory sound? Not so much of a question as an idea, really. |

Any theory can be argued as "sound" and yet it is still a theory until it is tested and joins the laws of physics. The speed of light is a finite speed, thus does not meet the definition of infinite velocity. |

it is impossible for a single object or atom to be in 2 places at 1 time. But there is a good chance that there may be things that are faster than light, we just may not have detected it yet. |

It's impossible. If something moves it's speed can be calculated and measured. To be infinite means it would be unmeasurable. |

You've been watching too much ST:VOY. Their theories on Warp 10 are clarly flawed. Instead, go with the ST:TNG Warp 10 theory, in which you merely travel faster. |

As stated earlier, the speed of light is a defined number: 300 million metres per second (give or take a few significant figures). However that is not the flaw in your question. "Infinite" is something with no boundary/limit. In terms of numbers it is a number which can never be reached, i.e. it is always bigger than any number we can come up with. In terms of "Infinite Velocity" this would mean a velocity which has no maximum (permanently in positive acceleration). At present we know of nothing which can achieve this. Even if we did, we do not know if the space our universe occupies is infinite. If it is there is no set number of "points" to be occupied. I hope this has given you some more insight :) |
