[QUOTE="Old_Slapper, post: 8884690, member: 690458"] Yes, a "theory" is just an educated guess. It is based on possible evidence, but it leans heavily toward being a hypothetical conclusion. Another example, they have no idea where the big dinosaurs came from. Fossils show there were smaller life forms for millions of years, then all of a sudden, these monstrous fossils started showing up. There are no fossils leading to the growth of the huge life. It's actually quite fascinating. Here is the definition of the word theory. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/theory[/URL] I don't believe it's safe to travel faster at the speed of light. Imagine if your craft hit a small pebble. That pebble would blow right through the shuttle, so imagine if you hit a large asteroid. Also, the closest possible habitable planet is about 4.3 lightyears away. At 10x the speed of light, it would still take a couple months to get there. However, that would still be way too dangerous to travel at those speeds. To travel to other planets, we would have to find some way to us some type of a wormhole. In other words, we would have to find some way bend space-time continuum. [/QUOTE]
