So, reading about light-years in space etc., and all that other awesome stuff, I was thinking...
For argument's sake, we have the following scenario:
Assuming you get into space, with infinite fuel, and nothing in the direction you intend on going for...

From my understanding the theory of light speed is that the closer you go to light speed the more your mass increases. If your mass increases exponentially, how is it possible to ever attain light speed, and how could you slow down, once you have reached...

So the idea of going at the speed of light, or slowing it, however, is as follows....
But you never hit it.
You can just keep getting closer.
You don't reach it.

Same deal with the speed of light.

Most internet links are slower than that.
speed for any communication, including the internet, is the speed of light.

Which says that the speed of light is a "cosmic constant" and that nothing in the universe can travel."
Much science-fiction literature is based on the idea that, if the light-speed barrier can.

I understand that due to time dialation, increase in mass and massive rise in energy use, no object can travel at or above light speed. But why does light travel at the fixed maximun "c"? Why is light constant in this regard? Why not 2c or 10c? What constrains...

The speed of light itself is a Fact. Indeed, it is even considered an exact number, as it is the unit with which we define the meter.
The constant of the speed of light is a Law. The speed of light has always been observed...

What if the speed of light increased?
Suppose that c had suddenly increased up to, let's say, 100 times it's former speed.
What would the effects be on the universe and Earth?

Does anybody know what the part number is for the light that goes inside the select-o-speed housing? I'm putting my tractor back together and I've lost this little light. Thanks
