Martian-
There ARE times when light moves at a different rate or particles move faster than
c.

(oddly the two directly above contradict each other slightly, the former saying that data as a pulse of light cannot exceed
c and the latter saying that pulses of data had exceeded the speed of light)
Basically, just do a Google search for "faster than the speed of light". The problem, Martian, is that science has far too much speculation. To believe that ANY current "fact" is, in fact, "fact" at all means you do not have the open-mindedness needed to be a breakthrough scientist. You MUST alsways question everything and assume there can be no assumptions.
