"It’s fucking fast" Who do you know that's fucked at the speed of light . | |||

"What's the speed of dark?" It's faster than light, as it always gets there first | |||
"What's the speed of dark?" Dark is always there. It is the natural state of the universe. Darkness travels at the speed of light. More accurately, the speed of light leaving. Light needs energy to exist. Darkness does not. | |||
"You could fly round the earth 8 times in one second "Impossible,the earth's flat  | |||

"What's the speed of dark? Dark is always there. It is the natural state of the universe. Darkness travels at the speed of light. More accurately, the speed of light leaving. Light needs energy to exist. Darkness does not. " Though, if dark is the opposite of light, then it must move slowly because it's heavy. | |||

Light needs energy to exist. Darkness does not. " If it takes the light from the Sun about 8 minutes to travel to Earth how long does it take the darkness of the night sky to travel here? | |||

I can switch my light off in about 3 seconds, and I have to get off my sofa. | |||

"If I could travel at the speed of light minus 1 mph. And I pointed a torch forward and switched it on.... would i see the light moving forward at 1 mph ?" Or.. Would it still appear to move away from you at the speed of light, as light's funny like that  | |||
"I bet i could beat it when the man who has my Chinese rings the door bell. " I was just thinking along the same lines!

"Like the speed of anything, it’s all relative " What, like an Aunty, Uncle or sister etc? | |||
"It's not that fast. Muhammad Ali said that he was so fast , that he could turn off the light switch. And be in bed before the light went out. "That would be more to do with the speed of Electrons. | |||
"It's not that fast. Muhammad Ali said that he was so fast , that he could turn off the light switch. And be in bed before the light went out.

"Paris and Janeway travelled at warp 9.9 ,thats fast" your wrong they travelled at warp 10 and turned into slimy yokes | |||

"671 million miles per hour. "Eric Idle begs to differ. Our universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding, In all of the directions it can whiz; As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know, Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is.  | |||
"671 million miles per hour.
Eric Idle begs to differ.
Our universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding,
In all of the directions it can whiz;
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is. "I think it was Professor Cox who said the Universe could expand faster than light. So we would never be able to reach it | |||

"If I could travel at the speed of light minus 1 mph. And I pointed a torch forward and switched it on.... would i see the light moving forward at 1 mph ?" yes | |||

"What i want to know is…if light is a bunch of photons all bouncing around…what happens when you switch the lamp off? Where do all those photons go. We see stuff because they are reflected and we pick them up with our eyes. So, when the lamp goes out, there must still be photons flying around right? Odd" I found a bunch of then down the back of my settee. If that's any help. | |||
"If I could travel at the speed of light minus 1 mph. And I pointed a torch forward and switched it on.... would i see the light moving forward at 1 mph ?yes " Hmmm it would be relative to your speed but i guess the torch would be travelling at lightspeed-1 also so the light emitted from the torch would still travel at light speed relativey so youd see the torch come on as there is no differential between the light source velocity and yours - im guessing.. but its the relativity bit i think. Correct me if my laymans logic is flawed in some way?  | |||

If you could see a train going past at the speed of light and someone on board turned on a torch Pointing forward  | |||
"It’s fucking fast" Finished 1st, ahead of sound which crossed the line in 2nd. The cheater rounded off the podium in 3rd | |||

Pointing forward "You would die because to see the torch you would have to be in front of a train travelling at light speed and calling at clapham junction basingstoke rugby milton keynes birmingham new street theres still no

"If I could travel at the speed of light minus 1 mph. And I pointed a torch forward and switched it on.... would i see the light moving forward at 1 mph ?yes " Two chances but you backed the wrong horse Speed of light is constant for all observers regardless of speed There is no absolute frame of reference against which c is measured | |||
"It’s fucking fast" No it’s not. It takes light around 100 000 years to travel from one end of Milky Way galaxy to another | |||

"You could fly round the earth 8 times in one second
Impossible,the earth's flat "If that was true all the world's cats would have pushed everything off the edge by now lol | |||
"You could fly round the earth 8 times in one second "Yeah but try cornering at that speed. Even the Stig would have difficulty. | |||

"Speed of light 299,792,4558 m/s,Coordinates of the Great Pyramid of Egypt 29.97924558,Coincidence?" What units are they, millicamels? Nanoniles? Megapharaohs? | |||
"671 million miles per hour.
What's its stopping distance?"Braking distance :A billion miles Thinking time :A fortnight | |||
