About 106 years ago, Einstein’s theory of special relativity
claimed that nothing can travel faster than light; and later the world of
physics grew on this. But recent experiments by the scientists of CERN may have
proved that he was wrong.
A team at LHC sent
beams of subatomic particles over 450 miles to a laboratory in Gran Sasso in
the Italian Alps. The experiment yielded shocking results, when neutrinos appeared
to travel 60 nanoseconds faster than light. The run was carried out twice, and surprisingly
the same result was yielded again.
Could this actually mean Einstein was wrong? If so, what
could these shocking results hold for the future of physics?
