Epiphany time...


Now there's a thought!

Good call tednugent and deadhead.

Very intriguing.

I don't know, though.... that much matter turning into pure energy would be gigantically titanic. It would be some flash!

And... all they'd have to do to turn back into matter is slow down? I dunno.....

I don't put much merit in my luminescent flash idea either... so don't feel bad. lol

And since "speed" is a relativistic concept.......... who's to say when it's actually been reached?

From the point of view of those about 5 or so billion light years away from us we are the ones moving at near light speed (away from them). They appear to be doing the same way out there from our point of view.

So..... then we are all energy already.

**throwing lightening bolts from my fingertips**

It’ll be so cool when we figure out warp speed… if it’s even possible. (Hmmm would warp speed turn you into anti-matter en route?)
