@Slarty I don't understand why FTL questions are dismissed by statements like yours. DrMcCleod is correct here. FTL is not prevented by any current theories and doesn't require an infinite amount of energy for it. Relativity just talks about speeds less than c. Ofc its impossible to accelerate to FTL from a lower speed but relativity never talks about scenarios where objects already have velocities >c.
