    The former distance is about 4 billion light-years, much smaller than ct, whereas the latter distance (shown by the orange line) is about 28 billion light-years, much larger than ct. In other words, if space were not expanding today, it would take 28 billion years for light to travel between Earth and the quasar, while if the expansion had ...

    Another quantum effect that predicts the occurrence of faster-than-light speeds is called the Hartman effect: under certain conditions the time needed for a virtual particle to tunnel through a barrier is constant, regardless of the thickness of the barrier. [50] [51] This could result in a virtual particle crossing a large gap faster than ...

    "Dynamite" was written by former Drifters member Ian Samwell, who wrote several songs for Richard and the group.Due to the ways in which the New Musical Express chart (the canonical Official Singles Chart until 1960) was compiled at the time, the B-sides of some records gained enough popularity that they entered the chart, generally alongside the A-side.

Regarding its success, Edwards stated, "It was just at the time of the Vietnam War and Nixon. It was looking bad out there. That song meant a lot to a lot of people during that time—especially me."

  8. Faster-than-light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faster-than-light

    Faster-than-light (superluminal or supercausal) travel and communication are the conjectural propagation of matter or information faster than the speed of light (c). The special theory of relativity implies that only particles with zero rest mass (i.e., photons ) may travel at the speed of light, and that nothing may travel faster.

    Spectral lines of their light can be used to determine their redshift. For supernovae at redshift less than around 0.1, or light travel time less than 10 percent of the age of the universe, this gives a nearly linear distance–redshift relation due to Hubble's law. At larger distances, since the expansion rate of the universe has changed over ...
