While the peak moves faster than light speed, the total energy of the pulse does not. This means Einstein's relativity is preserved, so do not expect super-fast starships or time machines anytime soon.

Not quite...but certainly very interesting 8)

S.Bilderback.
I had forgotten about that episode. It was titled "For the earth is hollow and I have touched the sky." Long title though

Well thank you harry - as do you - I've never know somebody spawn so many discussions!

I currently work as a software developer but I read Astrophysics at Keele University in England, unfortunately, there's not a lot of call for astrophysicists in southwest England....

Still, got this board to keep me going

The Stars have been my hobby for the last few decades.
Evolution was my subject at Uni
