I was wondering if anybody knew anything about the possibility of
traveling faster than the speed of light. I studied E=mc2, but if I
understand it correctly, that doesn't actually state that it isn't
possible. If it were possible, what would it require, and how would it
operate?

It requires new laws of nature that we don't know about yet.

You estimate the chances,
