This is more of a speculation thread than anything.
Given that acceleration passed the speed of light (c) requires infinite energy and a host of other problems, our current understanding of physics is that it is impossible to accelerate past c though things that are already passed c (such as the hypothetical tachyon) can exceed the speed of light but not decelerate slower than c.
So my question is, do you believe acceleration passed c is completely impossible? Or that it is possible but mankind simply doesn't yet understand how to perform such a feat?
I personally hope for the latter. I'd love to live in a world like Star Wars where traveling to distant planets across the galaxy becomes a reality.
