After years of research, European scientists concluded that some Neutrino's they have observed travel faster then possible at light speed as we know it.
This is an amazing discovery, since Einstein's relativity theory concluded that nothing in the Universe could do this.

The only reason I can think of how this is possible is that a Neutrino has no mass after all (Neutrino's travel through all matter as if it weren't there). And that a neutrino is not a particle but a form of pure (anti?) energy compressed together by something (our "normal" non-anti matter?).
Another option is that our measurement of the maximum speed of light has always been off... For some unknown reason...
Really weird...
