Nothing travels at a speed surpassing the speed of light. With a little fiddling
you can get what you want, but it isn't necessarily true let alone interesting.
Here's a couple of facts for you: Everything travels at light speed through the
spacetime continuum and a very clever danish woman working in the US was the
first to slow down light.
