E=M*C2 really???? shouldn't that be e=m*vsound = m/s = ft/s = mi/hr*c2
whats the fastest thing in the universe/, most people say you cannot go faster than light, but i told you its easy you just have to think differently, some would say if they are slightly more informed that it's sound that is the faster, while this is true, it is dependent upon two other factor's, the information being transmitted and how, which would be the speed of transmission over data length s/t which if the information is only a small amount can be transmitted faster and with ever more accurate measuring devices can be proved without a doubt to be true
destroying the lies of the MSM one hammer blow at a time, its that simple that even kids can do it, Einstein was either wrong or a liar on purpose and a jerk, (justsaying)
A group of high school and college teachers and students has transmitted sound pulses faster than light travels—at least according to one understanding of the speed of light.
The results conform to Einstein's theory of relativity, so don't expect this research to lead to sound-propelled spaceships that fly faster than light. Still, the work could help spur research that boosts the speed of electrical and other signals higher than before.
The standard metric for the speed of light is that of light traveling in vacuum. This constant, known as c, is roughly 186,000 miles per second, or roughly one million times the speed of sound in air. According to Einstein's work, matter and signals cannot travel faster than c.
PVC science
However, physicist William Robertson at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, along with a high school teacher, two college students and two high school students, managed to, depending on how you look at it, transmit sound pulses faster than c using little more than a plastic plumbing pipe and a computer's sound card.
"This experiment is truly basement science," Robertson told LiveScience.
The key to understanding their results, reported online Jan. 2 in the journal Applied Physics Letters, is envisioning every pulse of sound or light as a group of intermingled waves. This pulse rises and falls with energy over space, with a peak of strength in the middle.
Messing with Light Speed
In an unrelated previous experiment, Robert Boyd at the University of Rochester used similar principles to make pulses of light travel backward and faster than c.

Robertson and his colleagues transmitted sound pulses from the sound card through a loop made from PVC plumbing pipe and connectors from a hardware store. This loop split up and then recombined the tiny waves making up each pulse.
This led to a curious result. When looking at a pulse that entered and then exited the pipe, before the peak of the entering pulse even got into the pipe, the peak of the exiting pulse had already left the pipe.
If the velocities of each of the waves making up a sound pulse in this setup are taken together, the "group velocity" of the pulse exceeded c.
"I believe that this is the first experimental demonstration of sound going faster than light," Robertson said. Past research has proven it possible to transmit electrical and even light pulses with group velocities exceeding c.(c =the speed of light)
