Tachyon Particles Discovered?

Hi All!!,

I just want to say right now thank you for viewing my first post here on Starseed411.org.

First let us look at a description of what exactly a hypothetical tachyon particle is, For those of you who already know please bare with me as I explain it by using a online encyclopedia definition for those who do not know.

A tachyon particle is a hypothetical elementary particle that travels only at speeds exceeding that of light. According to the theory of relativity , the speed of light is the limiting velocity for all ordinary material particles. Particles having nonzero rest mass can approach, but not reach, the speed of light, since their mass would become infinite at that speed. On the other hand, particles with zero rest mass, such as the photon , must always travel at the speed of light; they cannot be brought to rest or even slowed down. Theorists have argued that since nothing in principle prohibits the existence of a third class of particles that travel only at speeds exceeding that of light, such particles, called tachyons [Gr. tachys, =swift] may exist although no evidence for them has been found. In the terminology of the theory, the particles that travel only at the speed of light are called luxons, and those that travel at lesser speeds are called tardyons. Like the original theory of relativity, the theory of tachyons has several aspects that appear to contradict common sense but that are fully self-consistent. For example, a tachyon must have an imaginary (in the mathematical sense) rest mass, or proper mass, and it must travel faster rather than slow down when it loses energy.

Pretty cool huh? If you are a fan of Star Trek then you might of heard this particle being talked about through out the shows life.   http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Tachyon

The weirdest part is that we humans right here on Earth just might of found the first physical evidence of this particle on September 22, 2011 at Gran Sasso lab in Italy. In an article by The Guardian News paper in the UK, Which states the following:

"Researchers on the Opera (Oscillation Project with Emulsion-tRacking Apparatus) experiment recorded the arrival times of ghostly subatomic particles called neutrinos sent from Cern on a 730km journey through the Earth to the Gran Sasso lab.

The trip would take a beam of light 2.4 milliseconds to complete, but after running the experiment for three years and timing the arrival of 15,000 neutrinos, the scientists discovered that the particles arrived at Gran Sasso sixty billionths of a second earlier, with an error margin of plus or minus 10 billionths of a second.

The measurement amounts to the neutrinos travelling faster than the speed of light by a fraction of 20 parts per million. Since the speed of light is 299,792,458 metres per second, the neutrinos were evidently travelling at 299,798,454 metres per second.

The result is so unlikely that even the research team is being cautious with its interpretation. Physicists said they would be sceptical of the finding until other laboratories confirmed the result." http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2011/sep/22/faster-than-light-par...

The most interesting part is that it is stated at the end of the above quote from The Guardian that "Physicists said they would be sceptical of the finding until other laboratories confirmed the result." Well... They did get their confirmation just under a month on November 18, 2011 at the same lab in Italy.

In the Mail Online paper we find the confirmation: " When a team of physicists announced that they had proved Einstein wrong, even they weren’t convinced.  So they ran the test again – and broke the speed of light for a second time.  Scientists from Cern, the Swiss home of the Large Hadron Collider, sent another beam of subatomic particles over 450 miles to a laboratory in Gran Sasso in the Italian Alps.  And after running the modified follow-up test 20 times, they recorded exactly the same results as before." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2063163/Einstein-spe...

So at this point I want to ask: Is it possible that these are actually Tachyon Particles, but are labeled as neutrinos because they are the particles that we know of right now?  Are the particles going to be the key to unlocking time travel as a character in X-Files who has stated the following in the 19th episode of season 4 which is called Synchrony:  " Thirty years ago - ten years from now - you'll be at a conference in Zurich. You'll meet a man named McGuane who's just discovered the first evidence of tachyons - subatomic particles that can travel faster than the speed of light and go back in time - but only for a few seconds and only at a temperature of absolute zero. But from that, and from your correspondence with McGuane, you'll have an idea. A revelation.

LISA: What revelation?

OLD MAN: One so remarkable, it would change the course of history.

and continues later in the episode to say: "  What she created. What you - we - helped to create. A world without history, without hope. Where anyone can know everything that will ever happen. I've seen that world."

Further more has the discovery of this particle even participated in a time warp that happened in Sicily where everyone's clock in the area jumped ahead by 15 minutes? http://www.euronews.net/2011/06/10/digital-clocks-go-crazy-in-sicil...

What if the "neutrinos" had a directional wave pattern affect in that direction... what if the "neutrino" stopped around Sicily? Could this of cause the clocks to jump 15 minutes ahead?

For now I am done with article but that does not mean that it will not be continued. I basically wrote it like this to get everyone thinking and to post you opinions in the comment section. Feel free to state your opinions in a polite fashion.
